UNSPSC 24121509: Packaging trays

UNSPSC 24121509 Packaging trays, a Commodity code, covers the supply of corrugated boxes, paper containers, and related packaging products that state and local governments procure for operational and custodial use. The code captures both general-purpose corrugated boxes for agency storage and distribution and specialized packaging containers for specific departmental needs. Issuing bodies under this code include school districts and state procurement offices; Northside Independent School District in San Antonio solicited custodial supplies including packaging materials through RFP 2026-071 in May 2026, while the State of California issued RFB IS-26200561 for corrugated paper containers designated as T-SPEC items in February 2026. Both jurisdictions treat packaging procurement as routine operational spending tied to broader facility management and agency supply chains, with awards typically spanning multiple fiscal periods based on actual usage rates.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and California. Northside ISD posted RFP 2026-071 on May 13, 2026 with a June 4, 2026 response deadline, requiring vendors to include all shipping and handling costs to the district location in San Antonio; the RFP replaced an expiring contract and made response mandatory for business continuity. The State of California posted RFB IS-26200561 on February 16, 2026 with a March 2, 2026 deadline for corrugated boxes to support multiple state agency requirements; the solicitation structure anticipated per-unit or per-order pricing with potential renewal options, and set-aside provisions may apply to small businesses and disabled veteran-owned businesses under California regulations.
