UNSPSC 40142500: Traps and strainers

UNSPSC 40142500 Traps and strainers is a Class code under which state and local governments procure maintenance, cleaning, and replacement services for grease traps, sand traps, septic tanks, storm vaults, oil interceptors, and associated drainage infrastructure. Recent solicitations show work ranging from routine trap pumping and disposal services at municipal facilities to complete drainage system improvements on public roadways and parks. The issuing bodies span city public works departments, county water authorities, county commissioners, state departments of corrections, and regional transit or utility authorities. Grease trap and septic tank cleaning services dominate the activity, with fixed-price or indefinite-quantity contracts establishing unit rates for periodic pumping, interior scraping, and compliant waste disposal across multiple facilities. Drainage construction improvements—including pipe installation, grading, pond construction, and yard drain systems—appear in parallel, particularly in Florida and Mississippi.
