About UNSPSC 72141505
UNSPSC 72141505 Earthmoving service is a Commodity code that covers excavation, site grading, foundation removal, debris disposal, and related ground preparation work across municipal and regional authorities. State and local governments soliciting under this code typically include county land bank authorities, city departments of public works, counties managing flood control districts, state environmental and transportation agencies, school districts, and special-purpose authorities. Representative recent work spans demolition and site restoration (DeKalb Regional Land Bank Authority RFQ for residential structure demolition in Scottdale and Lithonia, Georgia, with sealed quotes due July 28, 2026), subsurface remediation of mine shaft subsidence (Illinois Department of Natural Resources IFB for excavation and concrete stabilization in Braidwood, with bids due July 21, 2026), and large-scale landfill and stormwater infrastructure construction (City of Brownsville ITB for Landfill Cell #6 with bids due August 4, 2026, and Harris County Flood Control District ITB for T.C. Jester Stormwater Detention Basin compartments with bids due July 20, 2026).
Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia, Florida, South Carolina) and Texas, with secondary activity across the Midwest (Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan). The mix of issuing bodies reflects a typical spread: the DeKalb Regional Land Bank Authority appears as a repeat buyer with multiple simultaneous demolition and site restoration RFQs across Georgia locations (all responses due July 28, 2026), while county flood control districts (Harris County, Texas; Dorchester County, South Carolina) solicit channel repairs and detention basin construction on ITB and IFB notices. Work frequently carries prevailing wage and insurance requirements, and many solicitations mandate mandatory pre-bid site visits or conferences. Liquidated damages ranging from $475 to $1,425 per day and performance/payment bonds at 100 percent of contract value are standard across the larger, infrastructure-focused opportunities; smaller demolition work by land bank authorities typically expects 30-day completion windows and firm fixed-price lump-sum bidding. Activity spans from small residential demolition ($696 to 1,066 square feet) through major earthwork packages (450,000 cubic yards of cover soil, $31 million regional park development with 700-day construction schedules).
