UNSPSC 47131617: Dust mops

UNSPSC 47131617 Dust mops (Commodity) covers the consumable cleaning products and equipment that state and local jurisdictions buy as components of larger custodial supply contracts. Recent solicitations show that dust mops are procured as line items within broad janitorial and custodial supply packages — typically bundled with mop buckets, brooms, brushes, cleaning chemicals, paper products, and related consumables — rather than as standalone purchases. School districts dominate the issuing bodies under this code, with county education systems (Pinellas County Schools, Cobb County Schools, Madison County Schools) and independent school districts (Northside Independent School District in Texas, Hillsborough County Fire Rescue) appearing frequently. County governments also issue custodial supply procurements, typically for facilities management across multiple department operations. These are routine consumable replenishment procurements rather than capital equipment buys; contracts typically run one to two years with annual renewal options, and pricing must remain firm throughout the contract period with all freight and handling included.

The recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and South, with postings from Florida (Pinellas County, Hillsborough County), Georgia (Cobb County, Madison County), and Texas (Northside Independent School District). The Pinellas County Schools ITB #25-JG-072 for comprehensive custodial supplies, posted September 28, 2026, with bids due December 2, 2025, carries an estimated annual value of approximately $900,000 across 102 line items and represents the largest recent opportunity; the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners' competitive sealed bid (ITB-26-00319) for janitorial supplies for fire rescue operations, posted July 7, 2026, with bids due July 24, 2026, valued at $765,679.84 annually, reflects demand from county public-safety facilities. Northside Independent School District (RFP 2026-071, posted May 13, 2026, due June 4, 2026) and Madison County Schools (RFP CSUP 05-26, posted May 4, 2026, due June 2, 2026) illustrate the broader market for school district custodial stock replenishment. Samples, Safety Data Sheets, and E-Verify compliance are standard submission requirements; many jurisdictions reserve award authority by line item or section to manage vendor diversity and ensure supply continuity.
