UNSPSC 76121800: Refuse treatment

UNSPSC 76121800 Refuse treatment, a Class code, encompasses solid waste collection, processing, and disposal services that state and local governments procure across residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional settings. Recent state and local opportunities show governments buying roll-off container rental and haul-away services, curbside residential trash and recycling collection, commercial waste disposal, yard waste and vegetative debris processing, hazardous waste removal, and emergency debris cleanup. The mix of issuing bodies is broad: state departments (Texas General Land Office, Texas Department of Transportation, Texas Parks and Wildlife, Texas Health and Human Services, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), counties (Seminole, Clay, Glynn, Orange, Randolph, Brevard, Chatham), cities (Wichita, San Antonio, Tucson, Richardson, Fort Worth, Huntsville, Atlanta, Stamford, Albuquerque), transit and utility authorities (Orange County Transportation Authority, Orlando Utilities Commission), school districts (Marion County), state parks systems, and special districts (Greater Orlando Aviation Authority, Mississippi State Port Authority). Repeat buyers across the dataset include the Texas General Land Office and Texas Department of Transportation, both issuing multiple solicitations for routine roll-off container services and trash removal at distributed facilities. Texas and Florida dominate recent activity, with additional solicitations from Georgia, Arizona, and Connecticut, reflecting geographic concentration in Sunbelt states and scattered Northeast activity.

Recent representative opportunities show steady procurement volume: the Texas General Land Office issued IFB 601320000071510 for roll-off trash container rental and disposal (due October 16, 2026) and IFB 9998-SJ for jetty debris removal (due November 13, 2026); the City of Richardson issued ITB 03-27 for outdoor litter removal across 64 park locations with estimated annual budget of approximately $285,000 (due November 5, 2026); the County of Orange, California issued RFP-017-2988904-JC for countywide janitorial services including trash and recycling removal (due October 27, 2026, with mandatory pre-bid job walks); the City of Benson, Arizona issued RFP 2026RFP007 for exclusive residential solid waste collection serving approximately 2,200 customers (due October 9, 2026); and the City of Mulberry, Georgia issued RFP2026-01 for residential waste and recycling collection for approximately 13,100 units (due October 22, 2026). Contract terms typically run one to five years with renewal options; most bidders face insurance minimums of $1 million general liability and statutory workers' compensation. The code remains active and widely distributed across jurisdictions, with response deadlines throughout October and November 2026 signaling sustained procurement demand.
