UNSPSC 25101916: Hopper truck

A specially designed truck with telescoping screens at the rear of the truck as openings. The truck can dump bulk materials such as sand, ballast, grain, etc by gradually lowering its screen openings.

UNSPSC 25101916 Hopper truck (Commodity) is not actively solicited by state and local governments in recent opportunities; the code's scope—specialized hopper or skip trucks for bulk material transport—does not align with the vehicle procurement opportunities currently posted. Recent solicitations under related vehicle codes show substantial activity for pickup trucks, fire apparatus, transit vans, police vehicles, and specialized emergency or utility equipment, but no state or local buyer has posted a recent opportunity specifically for hopper or skip-truck models. The single South Dakota Department of Transportation opportunity that appears to use a code in this family is actually for a turnkey paint supply truck assembly—a custom flatbed with broom, message board, and hydraulic crash attenuator—which represents a different asset class and scope than the commodity code suggests.

The lack of current hopper-truck solicitations across the recent opportunities block indicates this code segment is either dormant or not reliably tagged by state and local procurement offices. Buyers seeking similar bulk-transport or specialized truck equipment (such as Riverside County's procurement of pickup trucks with fuel storage tanks, Sacramento County's valve-exerciser equipment mounted on trucks, or the Kentucky Veterans Affairs procurement of specialized Carryall cemetery-casket vehicles) post under related vehicle or equipment codes but have not flagged their work with this hopper-truck commodity designation. A business-development professional should monitor whether state departments of transportation or public utilities begin tagging concrete-mixer, asphalt-spreader, or other bulk-material equipment procurements under this code tier, but current activity does not support pursuing this code today.
