UNSPSC 46151803: Armoured container

Armoured containers have many applications ranging from ballistic safe-havens to secure weapons storage.

UNSPSC 46151803 Armoured container (Commodity) spans the supply and rental of specialized metal storage and collection vessels—including open-top roll-off containers, Conex shipping containers, mobile storage units, and waste/recycling receptacles—that state and local governments procure for solid waste management, fleet operations, transit infrastructure, emergency services, and facility maintenance. Recent solicitations show a mix of outright purchases, multi-year rental agreements, and service contracts bundling container supply with collection and transportation, reflecting the diversity of end uses across purchasing bodies.

Cities and counties dominate recent activity, with repeat buyers including the City of Wichita (trash and recycling collection across transit, police, and library departments), the City of Leesburg (roll-off container supply for solid waste), the City of Austin (mobile storage and office units; Conex containers for fire operations), Hillsborough County (shipping containers for fire stations), and Collier County (transit shelters and amenities funded by Federal Transit Administration grants). State-level procurement under this code is absent from recent postings; activity clusters in municipal and county purchasing offices. Geographic spread spans Texas, Florida, Georgia, and Kansas, with Florida showing the highest concentration of recent opportunities.
