UNSPSC 40141747: Grease trap

A receptacle designed to collect and retain grease and fatty substances normally found in kitchen or similar wastes; usually installed in the drainage system between the kitchen and the sewer.

UNSPSC 40141747 Grease trap is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement for scheduled and emergency grease trap pumping, cleaning, and disposal services at municipal, county, and institutional facilities. Recent opportunities range from routine maintenance contracts covering multiple service locations to specialized equipment removal and sewer system replacement projects, though the code's nominal scope and recent solicitation activity overlap imperfectly—several opportunities tagged with this code involve broader drainage infrastructure work where grease trap service is one component rather than the primary deliverable.

The issuing-body mix reflects diverse public sector operators: city governments (Dallas, Albuquerque), county departments (Harris County, San Mateo County, Clay County), state agencies (Utah Department of Corrections, California Department of Veterans Affairs, State of Oregon), school districts (Laredo ISD), water utilities (Clayton County Water Authority), and state health systems (Harris Health). Texas and California dominate recent posting activity. Representative opportunities include the City of Dallas IFB for a 60-month ID/IQ agreement covering sand traps, grease traps, septic tanks, storm vaults, and interceptor cleaning with response due August 14, 2026; the State of Utah Division of Purchasing IFB for grease pumping services at eleven Department of Corrections facilities statewide with quarterly or semiannual service intervals, due July 21, 2026; the City of Albuquerque RFB for grease trap pumping and cleaning across 32 city and airport locations with local and small-business preferences up to 10% combined, due June 22, 2026; and the County of San Mateo RFP for combined sewer maintenance and grease trap services with an aggregate fiscal obligation not to exceed $500,000 over five years, due May 20, 2026. The California Department of Veterans Affairs posted two separate solicitations for grease trap cleaning at the Veterans Home of California at Fresno—one open to all bidders and one restricted to certified small businesses only. Set-asides and preferences vary by issuer: Albuquerque applies small-business, local-business, state-resident, and veteran preferences; Harris Health requires a 30% MWBE utilization goal; the CalVet SB-only procurement restricts eligibility to certified small businesses with DVBE tie-breaking preference; and Utah imposes criminal background checks and felony exclusions for contractor personnel accessing Department of Corrections facilities.
