UNSPSC 40142509: Oil trap

UNSPSC 40142509 Oil trap (Commodity) covers maintenance and disposal services for grease traps, sand traps, septic tanks, storm vaults, and interceptors — equipment and fixtures that capture or treat waste in municipal facilities, utilities, parks, and public buildings. State and local procurement under this code focuses on recurring cleaning, pumping, and compliant disposal services rather than equipment procurement or installation. Issuing bodies span cities, counties, water authorities, and special-purpose districts; the City of Albuquerque, City of Dallas, City of Tupelo, and Harris County and San Mateo County all posted grease-trap or combined wastewater-system maintenance solicitations in the past four months. These agencies typically structure such work as either fixed-price service agreements with unit pricing by trap size and frequency, or as indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contracts with task orders issued as needed. Services encompass removal of liquids, grease, and solids; interior wall and baffle scraping; inlet and outlet cleaning; reassembly; and proper disposal in compliance with environmental and waste-management regulations.

Recent activity clusters in Texas, California, Florida, Mississippi, and Georgia. The City of Albuquerque solicited bids on May 20, 2026 (due June 22) for grease-trap pumping and cleaning across 32 city and airport locations under RFB-2026-777-VAR-GS, offering combined vendor preferences of up to 10% for small business, local business, state resident, pay-equity certification, or state resident veteran businesses, with a three-year contract term plus one optional renewal and pricing structured by trap size (0–50 gallons through 500–1,500 gallons) and service frequency. The City of Dallas posted an invitation to bid on July 16, 2026 (due August 14) for a 60-month indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity service agreement covering sand traps, grease traps, septic tanks, storm vaults, and interceptors across multiple facilities. San Mateo County released an RFP on May 4, 2026 (due May 20) for combined sewer maintenance, repair, and grease-trap services under a five-year agreement with an aggregate fiscal obligation not to exceed $500,000, requiring four years of relevant experience, California C-36 and C-42 contractor licenses, and 24-hour on-call emergency response capability with one-hour emergency response and four-hour on-scene arrival. Minimum qualifications commonly include active state contractor licenses, hazardous-waste and liquid-waste permits, and insurance coverage (general liability, motor vehicle, workers' compensation) at $1 million or higher per occurrence. Recent opportunities show demand across municipal facilities, water utilities, correctional institutions, and airport operations.
