UNSPSC 47121803: Squeegees or washers

UNSPSC 47121803 Squeegees or washers is a Commodity code that in recent state and local practice spans a narrow slice of janitorial and facility maintenance activity—specifically the hand tools and equipment used for water-based surface cleaning. State and local governments procure squeegees and washers primarily as line items within larger custodial-supplies bundles, and secondarily as standalone equipment purchases for specialized pressure-washing or floor-care work. The issuing-body mix shows strong representation from county and municipal governments procuring on behalf of departments of public works, fire rescue operations, and facilities maintenance, alongside school districts and county boards of education sourcing custodial consumables for multi-site operations. Recent opportunities also surface county purchasing cooperatives acting as regional aggregators for member school districts across multiple states.

Recent activity clusters heavily in Florida, Georgia, Texas, and California. Hillsborough County (Florida) issued ITB 26-00319 on July 7, 2026 for consumable janitorial and operational supplies including squeegees and washers for 47 fire stations, with bids due July 24 and an estimated contract value of $765,679.84 for one year. Solano County (California) solicited toiletry paper products and ancillary janitorial supplies via IFB on July 6, 2026, for three county facilities. Muscogee County School District (Georgia) and Northside Independent School District (Texas) both issued RFPs in April and May 2026 for custodial supplies covering multiple school locations. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (Texas) managed a regional catalog discount RFP for custodial supplies effective June 2022 through June 2023 with estimated expenditures of $5,220,140 across member entities. The code shows limited standalone volume—most recent opportunities pair squeegees and washers with broader cleaning chemicals, paper products, floor-care equipment, and hand soaps rather than treating them as a distinct procurement line. Dougherty County School District (Georgia), Madison County Schools (Georgia), Pinellas County Schools (Florida), and Gwinnett County (Georgia) all issued custodial-supplies solicitations between February and June 2026, none of which isolate squeegees or washers as a major budget driver or evaluation criterion.
