Packing equipment maintenance and repair services

UNSPSC 73152104 Packaging equipment maintenance and repair service is a Commodity code capturing flat-rate and time-and-materials repair, maintenance, and emergency support for industrial waste-processing, material-handling, and specialized equipment such as shredders, balers, forklifts, aerial lifts, and frame-straightening machines. State and local buyers—counties, state departments, transit authorities, and municipal fleets—use this code to secure technician-led preventative maintenance, break-fix services, parts replacement, remote and on-site support, and equipment diagnostics for equipment critical to waste management, vehicle maintenance, and facility operations.

Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state environmental and corrections departments, county transportation and fleet operations, county waste and public works divisions, city transit authorities, and special facilities.
