UNSPSC 24131509 Under counter refrigerator (Commodity) encompasses walk-in and under-counter cold storage units, refrigerated containers, and related installation and maintenance services that state and local governments procure for food service, evidence storage, detention facilities, and health-care operations. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring stand-alone freezer and cooler units, prefabricated walk-in systems, portable refrigerated storage containers, refrigeration equipment installation, and quarterly maintenance contracts for detention and correctional food-service kitchens. Issuing bodies span state departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, California), county governments (Gwinnett County Georgia, Pinellas County Florida, Sacramento County California, Richmond County Georgia), municipal services (City of Austin), school districts (Houghton Lake Community Schools Michigan, Life School Texas, Richmond County Schools Georgia), and state-supported facilities (Denton State Supported Living Center). Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Gwinnett County appear as repeat buyers across multiple recent opportunities. Work ranges from single-unit replacements at school cafeterias and sheriff's offices to fleet maintenance contracts supporting multi-location detention kitchen operations and specialized evidence-storage systems.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, California, Georgia, and Florida, with secondary activity in Michigan and Minnesota. Representative opportunities include: Gwinnett County, Georgia issuing an IWQ for kitchen equipment purchase and installation at a community center (September 2026, IFB format, three-day response window); Sacramento County Sheriff's Property Warehouse requesting bids on a prefabricated walk-in frost-free evidence-storage freezer kit under RFB 2026-RFB-0061 (July 2026, with mandatory pre-bid meeting and August 30 delivery deadline tied to grant funding); Texas Department of Criminal Justice issuing multiple bids for refrigerated storage containers at individual correctional units (July–August 2026, IW255054 through IW256884, all via electronic Bonfire portal with seven- to fifteen-day response windows); and Pinellas County, Florida soliciting a thirty-six-month ITQ for quarterly maintenance and repairs of detention kitchen equipment including ovens, grills, griddles, and dishwashing machines (August 2026, with 5% SBE price preference and requirement for permanent business office within County or convenient radius). Installation and maintenance work frequently carries requirements for comprehensive liability and workers' compensation insurance, background security clearance, and experience references; detention and correctional facility work mandates E-Verify compliance and facility security processing.
