UNSPSC 52141506: Domestic freezers

UNSPSC 52141506 Domestic freezers, a Commodity code, encompasses refrigeration equipment and related appliances that state and local governments procure for food service, evidence storage, animal welfare, and residential facilities — including commercial walk-in freezers and coolers, countertop and reach-in refrigeration units, and emergency temperature-controlled storage solutions. Recent solicitations show governments buying brand-specific models alongside open-market replacements; the City of Philadelphia has posted multiple micro-purchase bids for individual refrigerators and ice machines in the $41,000–$43,000 range, while Hillsborough County Fire Rescue sought nine kitchen and laundry appliances including top-freezer and side-by-side refrigerators for $41,183.79. Muskegon Public Schools and Escambia County have issued RFPs for walk-in cooler and freezer units with installation, and the City of Tucson sought emergency freezer and refrigerator semi-truck rentals for police evidence storage. Texas A&M University System and University of Wisconsin-Madison posted ITBs and RFBs for appliances serving residence halls and food service operations. The issuing-body mix spans municipal procurement offices, county departments, school districts, state universities, and transit or special-purpose authorities; Philadelphia and Escambia County appear in multiple recent solicitations.

Activity concentrates in Florida, Michigan, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Texas, with representation from Wisconsin and Washington state. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Philadelphia's micro-purchase ITB B2727545 for an ice machine (due July 17, 2026), Hillsborough County's ITQ 26-00290 for nine appliances at $41,183.79 (due June 18, 2026), Muskegon Public Schools' RFP RFPMSGN2600000016872 for walk-in cooler and freezer units with installation at Muskegon High School (due April 17, 2026), and the State of Georgia's RFQ 46200DNR0000825 for domestic appliances (due February 13, 2026). Delivery, installation, and trade-in or removal of existing units appear in specifications; insurance, compliance with local tax and wage requirements, and FOB delivery terms are standard. No dominant incumbent or preferred-vendor pattern emerges from recent awards.
