UNSPSC 25181715: Dump trailer

A trailer used to carry and dump gravel, sand or coal. It is usually linked to a tow truck.

UNSPSC 25181715 Dump trailer is a Commodity code capturing the procurement of specialized mobile equipment for debris management, waste transport, mortuary operations, and municipal fleet support across state and local jurisdictions. State and local governments buy dump trailers, grapple-equipped trailers for storm debris collection, refuse transfer trailers, and specialized mobile equipment under this code—ranging from standard 12,000 to 25,900 GVWR units for routine operations to customized configurations for emergency response or specialized functions. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners (Habersham County, Macon Water Authority, Pickens County), municipal departments (City of Provo, City of Atlanta, City of Perry), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Transportation), university systems (Texas A&M University-Kingsville, Fort Valley State University, Mississippi State University), water authorities, and fire rescue departments. Recent solicitations span dump trailers, grapple dump trailers for debris management, walking floor refuse trailers, recycle trailers, equipment carriers, and specialized command post or mortuary deployment equipment—indicating that the code captures a broad family of mobile platform assets beyond basic dump functionality.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Florida, with secondary activity in California, Utah, Colorado, and Minnesota. Representative recent opportunities include Habersham County Board of Commissioners' RFQ for a commercial-grade grapple dump trailer (18'–20' deck-over, 22,000 lb. GVWR, 21' reach grapple arm) with responses due October 14, 2026; Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for mortality resources and services requiring deployment of four DSHS-owned 32-foot mortuary trailers with strike team support and secure storage, responses due October 28, 2026; St. Johns River Water Management District's ITB for two 8' x 20' dump trailers (25,900 lbs. GVWR, electric tarp system, LED lighting), responses due July 30, 2026; and Texas Department of Transportation's ongoing solicitations for deckover trailers, dry van trailers, and sewer jetter systems across multiple districts. The code shows steady mid-size capital equipment procurement activity typical of fleet renewal cycles, with individual awards ranging from $40,000 to $200,000+ and multi-unit procurements (DeKalb County's 12 walking floor refuse trailers, State of Texas CPA's multi-group trailer buy) indicating sustained demand for both routine replacements and specialized applications.
