UNSPSC 24121810: Drum washing machine

The purpose of this machine is to scrape the drums made up of usually steel or plastic etc.

UNSPSC 24121810 Drum washing machine is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity maps to hazardous waste collection, transportation, and disposal services rather than equipment. The Orange County Transportation Authority's August 2026 RFQ for removal and recycling of used oils, antifreeze, filters, brake fluid, aerosol cans, and medical waste shows the code capturing multi-stream waste management contracts where drums serve as containment vessels during transport and staging. State and local buyers using this code solicit services from transit authorities and special-purpose districts; the issuing body mix in available records is limited to a single transit authority, limiting visibility into broader category activity across municipalities, counties, or state departments.

The code shows recent activity in California, specifically Orange County. The Orange County Transportation Authority RFQ (Solicitation 250459, due August 18, 2026) budgeted $55,000 for a one-year hazardous waste removal and recycling contract serving five transit bases (Garden Grove, Anaheim, Irvine Construction Circle, Santa Ana, and Irvine Sand Canyon), requiring pickup of approximately 30,000 gallons of used oil, 7,700 gallons of antifreeze, 10,000 pounds of filters, and smaller volumes of brake fluid, universal waste aerosol cans, and medical waste at minimum 90-day intervals with 5-business-day emergency response. The contractor must hold DTSC hazardous waste hauling registration, EPA authorization, and California Highway Patrol Hazardous Material License; award goes to the lowest responsive and responsible firm under a time-and-expense contract with $1 million–$4 million pollution liability insurance requirements depending on facility classification. Limited recent-opportunity volume suggests this code sees narrow state and local procurement activity.
