UNSPSC 27112029: Garden watering can

A container for water, typically of metal or plastic having a long spout with a perforated nozzle, in the other side it usually has a handle, it is used to water plants.

UNSPSC 27112029 Garden watering can is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses water delivery and storage containers for organizational and operational use, including 5-gallon and 1-gallon water containers, water dispensers, and related janitorial supply items purchased by state and local jurisdictions on an as-needed basis. The code draws bids from cities, counties, and regional cooperative purchasing vehicles. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers using this code to source consumable water and janitorial supplies for fire rescue operations, municipal facilities, and citywide departments, often bundled with related operational items such as plastic cups and dispenser rentals with maintenance services rather than marketed as standalone garden or landscape equipment.

The geographic spread includes Texas, Florida, Pennsylvania, and multi-state cooperative purchasing frameworks. The City of Philadelphia issued an IFB for metal water jug racks (B2728164) with a response deadline of October 19, 2026, and a not-to-exceed total quote of $43,000. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Tampa, Florida posted an ITB (ITB2600319) on July 7, 2026 for consumable janitorial and operational supplies to service 47 fire stations, with a one-year estimated contract value of $765,679.84 and bids due July 24, 2026. The City of San Antonio, Texas solicited competitive bids (RFx 6100019423) for an annual citywide water bottle service contract encompassing 5-gallon purified water containers, 1-gallon distilled water, plastic cups, water dispenser rentals, and delivery services, with a due date of June 3, 2026. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative, issued RFP 061626 with a June 16, 2026 deadline for law enforcement equipment on behalf of multiple counties and public entities across the United States and Canada, though this opportunity's fit with the garden watering can code classification is tangential.
