UNSPSC 25202205: Aircraft tires

UNSPSC 25202205 Aircraft tires is a Commodity code that actually encompasses broader tire procurement and disposal services than the code name suggests. Recent state and local opportunities under this code show purchasing for waste tire management, vehicle tire supply and repair, and tire disposal services compliant with environmental regulations. Issuing bodies include county governments and major city departments of public works. Pasco County, Florida, through its Board of County Commissioners, solicited waste tire management services via IFB (IFBKM26097) with a June 23, 2026 response deadline, requiring vendors to pick up and dispose of approximately 1,000 tons of annual waste tires from two County collection sites and possess FDEP or EPA approval for tire processing end uses such as tire-derived fuel, crumb rubber, or civil engineering applications. The City of Atlanta issued an IFB (PE66062NONST2026000000369) with a May 8, 2026 deadline seeking vendors to supply tires of all sizes for all vehicle classes, provide environmentally sustainable disposal, deliver on-site and field tire repair services, offer retreading with inspection documentation, and remain available for emergency service calls outside normal business hours.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia. Pasco County's contract offers a three-year base term through September 30, 2029, with two optional one-year extensions, and applies a local preference allowing qualified vendors within Pasco County or neighboring counties (Hillsborough, Pinellas, Polk, or Hernando) to match the lowest bid if within 10 percent for awards under $1 million or 5 percent for awards exceeding $1 million; the County requires a $50,000 performance bond and comprehensive general liability insurance with $2 million per-occurrence limits. Atlanta's procurement does not disclose award value, budget, set-asides, or disadvantaged-enterprise preferences in the available materials and requires vendor registration on the Atlanta Suppliers portal prior to bid submission. Both solicitations emphasize environmental compliance and operational responsiveness, with Pasco County pricing on a per-ton f.o.b. basis and Atlanta requiring scheduled delivery plus emergency availability.
