UNSPSC 25174803: Towing hook

A metal product that has the shape of an angle or bent for convenient towing of vehicle. It is used for lifting or pulling vehicles.

UNSPSC 25174803 Towing hook (Commodity) covers equipment components and associated services that state and local governments acquire for vehicle recovery, roadside assistance, and fleet maintenance operations. Recent solicitations under this code center on on-call towing and wrecker services for municipal departments rather than discrete towing-hook components, indicating that procurement activity in this space clusters around service contracts for equipment deployment rather than parts acquisition alone. Issuing bodies include municipal governments and county transit or public-safety operations seeking reliable, prompt recovery services on an as-needed basis to support daily operational demands of town-owned and town-controlled vehicles and equipment.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in the South and Southwest, with recent solicitations from the Town of Hilton Head Island, South Carolina (sealed proposals for on-call towing and wrecker services, due October 27, 2026) and Arizona municipalities managing comparable fleet support operations. The Town of Hilton Head Island RFQ 202624 posted September 29, 2026, exemplifies the service-oriented scope: the town is soliciting sealed proposals from qualified towing operators to establish an on-call contract for towing, recovery, and roadside assistance services to support Town departments including public safety, with no estimated contract value or incumbent information disclosed in available source material.
