UNSPSC 27112910: Portable waste oil storage

A type of equipment for temporary storage of waste oil of vehicle engine or transmission at motor repair shops.

UNSPSC 27112910 Portable waste oil storage (Commodity) covers containerized waste management and disposal services that state and local governments actually procure as part of broader refuse and waste hauling operations. Recent state and local solicitations under this code frame the work as refuse removal and tire management — furnishing, installing, and maintaining waste containers; collecting and transporting waste from multiple site locations; and disposing or processing waste materials at approved facilities in compliance with environmental regulations. Issuing bodies include county governments and their constituent boards, which treat waste management as a core infrastructure service. The scope includes front-end loader containers, roll-off dumpsters, hand-pickup service, and daily or as-needed collection with 24/7 emergency response capability. Environmental compliance (EPA, state DEP/FDEP approval) and proof of vendor licensing and prior experience are standard requirements across recent bids.

Harris County, Texas and Pasco County, Florida both posted waste management solicitations in May 2026, representing activity in the South and Southeast. Harris County's ITB for waste management services (solicitation 260030, due June 15, 2026) covers refuse container furnishing and maintenance with collection at multiple locations and special detention facility services, requiring M/WBE utilization with a $21.65 minimum wage and liquidated-damages provisions for missed collections. Pasco County's IFB for waste tire management (IFBKM26097, due June 23, 2026) sought vendors to handle approximately 1,000 tons annually of whole tires from two county collection sites, with vendors required to hold FDEP or EPA approval for tire processing end uses and to price on a per-ton f.o.b. basis, and both issuing bodies applied local business preferences where applicable. The code shows active procurement in Texas and Florida; recent opportunities indicate that jurisdictions are treating waste containerization and disposal as managed services with strong environmental and performance accountability provisions.
