UNSPSC 49221521: Sporting goods cart

A manual carriage or chariot that carries the device used in various sports games. It is manufactured exclusively for the equipment or manufactured for multi-purpose use.

UNSPSC 49221521 Sporting goods cart (Commodity) represents equipment storage and transport solutions that state and local governments buy to support athletic programs and recreational facilities. Recent solicitations show schools and universities procuring specialized carts—including ball storage carts, equipment racks, and mobility solutions—as part of broader athletic equipment and PE supply requests, though the code itself sees limited standalone activity distinct from larger multi-item athletic procurement bundles.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with repeat activity from independent school districts in Texas (Birdville, Harlingen, Donna, Los Fresnos, Trion City Schools in Georgia) and one Pennsylvania district (Randolph County) seeking equipment for 15-sport athletic programs and PE curricula. University procurement appears occasionally (Albany State University, University of Wisconsin–La Crosse), and a single county parks department (Sarasota County) procured volleyball court infrastructure. Recent opportunities span Texas (Harlingen Consolidated ISD multiple RFPs for Athletic Strength & Conditioning, Powerlifting, and PE Supplies; Donna ISD catalog-bid series; Birdville ISD at $867,443.31 estimated annual value through July 1, 2026); Georgia (Trion City Schools IFB for weight room equipment through May 26, 2026; Randolph County School System track project through July 7, 2026); Florida (Sarasota County RFQ for volleyball court systems, due June 26, 2026); Maine (State Department of Defense gym equipment RFQ through May 14, 2026); and Arizona (Tolleson Union High School District SAVE cooperative IFB covering 880 line items with $4,102,000 estimated total annual usage across 23 districts, due March 5, 2026). Geographic spread is concentrated in Texas with secondary activity in the Southeast and intermittent postings in the upper Midwest and Southwest. Procurement vehicle preference runs heavily toward RFPs and IFBs with multi-vendor awards and as-needed purchasing terms, with Texas Education Code compliance and HUB requirements common in that state's school district procurements.
