UNSPSC 76101501: Washroom sanitation services

UNSPSC 76101501 Washroom sanitation services is a Commodity code for routine and specialized cleaning of restrooms, toilets, sinks, and associated fixtures across municipal and institutional facilities. State and local governments procure this work as part of broader custodial contracts at government buildings, transit facilities, schools, water authorities, and public amenities, where restroom sanitation appears consistently as a line-item deliverable within multi-building janitorial scopes. Recent solicitations show that this code sits within larger facility-maintenance procurements—restroom cleaning is specified alongside floor care, trash removal, and general facility cleaning rather than purchased as a standalone service, though specialized fryer-cleaning work for healthcare kitchens and pressure-washing for building exteriors also appear tagged to this code despite minimal relevance to washroom sanitation. Issuing bodies span state departments (Kentucky Finance and Administration Cabinet, Illinois Department of Transportation, Oregon Department of Transportation), county governments (Cobb County-Marietta Water Authority in Georgia, Harris County Toll Road Authority in Texas, Chatham County Georgia, Beaufort County South Carolina), municipalities (City of Norcross Georgia, City of Phoenix Arizona, City of Ocala Florida, City of Indianapolis, City of Tampa Florida), university systems (Texas State University, Georgia Southern University), and special districts (Orange County Transportation Authority, Kissimmee Utility Authority). Georgia and Florida dominate the recent posting activity with multiple city and county opportunities; Texas, Georgia, Kentucky, Illinois, Oregon, Michigan, Maine, and Arizona also show active procurement in the past two weeks of September through mid-October 2026.

Representative recent opportunities include Cobb County-Marietta Water Authority's RFP for custodial services at two treatment divisions (Quarles and Wyckoff) with proposals due November 5, 2026; the City of Norcross Georgia's RFP for custodial cleaning across nine city facilities, approximately 129,941 square feet, with proposals due November 20, 2026 and a pre-proposal meeting October 28, 2026 at 10:00 a.m.; Georgia Southern University's RFP for custodial services across four campuses (Statesboro, Savannah, Hinesville, Swainsboro) with proposals due October 28, 2026; and the Commonwealth of Kentucky's RFB for janitorial services at its Disabilities Determination Services facility in Frankfort (99,458 square feet, three dedicated employees, Monday-Friday 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during business hours) with bids due October 30, 2026 and a mandatory site visit October 20, 2026. Many jurisdictions impose local-vendor preferences (Chatham County requires bidders within 30 miles; Norcross applies local-business bonuses of 5 or 2.5 points), E-Verify compliance (Norcross, Covington Georgia, Forsyth County Georgia), and set-aside programs (Indianapolis mandates 15% MBE, 8% WBE, 3% VBE, 1% DOBE participation; Phoenix requires DBE-N documentation; Illinois State Police mandates 25% Business Enterprise Program participation). Contract terms typically run one to five years with optional renewals; pricing is commonly firm and fixed for the first 12 months with CPI-capped escalation thereafter. Performance standards include monthly inspections, deficiency penalties ($50–$150 per building for 24-hour corrections), mandatory background checks for all personnel, and commercial general liability insurance ($1 million per occurrence / $2 million aggregate as a standard minimum).
