UNSPSC 47110000: Industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment

UNSPSC 47110000 Industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment is a Family code encompassing the purchase, lease, and maintenance of commercial-grade washers, dryers, and related equipment for public facilities. State and local governments under this code procure equipment for jail laundry operations, public recreation facilities, multi-family housing, fire stations, and state parks, together with installation, preventative maintenance, repair services, and equipment-as-a-service arrangements. Recent solicitations show a mix of outright equipment purchases with installation (washing machines and dryers for fire stations, state parks, and government facilities), full-service leases with operator responsibility for maintenance and revenue management (multi-family housing laundry systems), and dedicated maintenance and repair contracts for existing industrial equipment in high-use settings such as county jails. Issuing bodies include county probation and detention departments, county boards of commissioners, city fire rescue departments, state departments of natural resources, housing authorities, and county facilities management offices.

Recent activity spans California, Florida, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Texas, and Utah. The County of Orange, California issued an IFB for routine maintenance and repair services of industrial laundry equipment at two juvenile detention facilities (Speed Queen, B&C, Milnor, and Dexter washers and dryers) with a five-percent local small business preference and a May 19, 2026 close date. Salt Lake County issued an RFC for quarterly preventative maintenance and repairs of commercial laundry equipment (Milnor, UniMac, and Huebsch models) at two jail facilities, due October 13, 2026, with anticipated annual costs around $5,000 and a six-year term. The Housing Authority of the City of Alameda solicited proposals for leased, coinless, mobile app-enabled commercial washers and dryers across six multi-family residential properties (28 washers, 33 dryers), with proposals due August 1, 2026 and flexible pricing models combining fixed lease payments and revenue sharing.
