UNSPSC 47121602: Vacuum cleaners

UNSPSC 47121602 Vacuum cleaners, a Commodity code, sees limited direct state and local procurement activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. The recent opportunities on file show that state and local governments are buying vacuum cleaners as component items within larger custodial or lead-safety equipment procurements—not as standalone products. Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida) issued ITB 26131-MST on September 21, 2026, for custodial equipment that includes upright vacuums (400 units) and wet/dry vacuums among 18 line items; the City of St. Petersburg, Florida, posted IFB26307 on October 6, 2026, for lead safety equipment that itemizes vacuum cleaners only indirectly within Mobile Containment Units and EPA Compliance Kits. The Caltrans janitorial services solicitation (IFB 04A7589, posted September 4, 2026) covers vacuuming labor but does not separately procure equipment. The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative issued an RFP for Catalog Discount Bid custodial supplies (CUS2628, posted June 22, 2026) valued at an estimated $12.6 million over two years with 33 prior awards, though the full line-item detail is not specified in the available materials.

The issuing bodies are primarily school districts and municipal governments, with one regional purchasing cooperative. Geographic activity clusters in Florida (St. Petersburg and Hillsborough County), California (Caltrans District 4), and Texas (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative serving multiple member entities). The vacuum cleaner code does not surface as a primary procurement focus—vacuums appear as secondary line items within broader custodial or equipment bundles rather than as stand-alone solicitations. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor custodial equipment and facilities-maintenance RFPs from school districts and municipalities, where vacuums are specified as component items, rather than expect direct opportunities tagged solely to UNSPSC 47121602.
