UNSPSC 27112037: Brush cutter

A type of cutter designed for cutting down brambles and overgrown parts of the garden.

UNSPSC 27112037 Brush cutter is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it bear no relationship to brush cutters or vegetation management—the code shows a data-tagging mismatch with actual procurement activity. The opportunities instead reflect waste tire disposal, processing, shearing, and recycling services. The source records five recent postings: Hillsborough County (Florida) ITB for tire disposal and transportation services ($1.635 million estimated value, due October 23, 2026); Broward County (Florida) fixed-price contract for tire shearing at the landfill (due September 25, 2026, four bids received ranging $40–$85 per tire); Pasco County (Florida) IFB for as-needed waste tire management across two collection sites (approximately 1,000 tons annually, contract through September 30, 2029 with two one-year renewal options); DeKalb County (Georgia) RFP for a public-private partnership scrap tire recycling program (due August 26, 2026); and Sourcewell cooperative procurement for law enforcement equipment (unrelated, due June 16, 2026). The law enforcement posting appears to be a tagging error within the source data itself.

Activity concentrates in Florida, where three recent opportunities from Hillsborough, Broward, and Pasco counties address tire management and disposal. Pasco County's solicitation includes a local preference provision (10 percent price-match allowance within Pasco or neighboring counties for awards under $1 million; 5 percent for awards exceeding $1 million) and requires FDEP or EPA facility approval for tire processing end uses including tire-derived fuel, crumb rubber, and civil engineering applications. DeKalb County's RFP signals emerging P3 interest in scrap tire recycling at the county level. No recent opportunities specifically match the brush cutter Commodity code; state and local procurement activity under this code designation should be verified against the actual UNSPSC classification in use by issuing bodies, as the current tagging suggests a taxonomy alignment problem rather than active market demand for brush cutters through state and local channels.
