FAQ
What's the difference between monofilament bags, regular sandbags, and burlap bags?
They are all made from different materials. Monofilament bags are made from a heavier duty type plastic than regular sandbags, while burlap bags are made from jute, which is a plant fiber. Read more here.
Are sandbags effective against flooding?
Sandbags prevent flooding by acting as a water barrier to divert water, this is due to the sand's coarse texture making it less porous (ability to absorb water) than other materials. The main benefit of using sandbags to prevent flooding is just how simple and quick they are to use and set up.
What is the best material to put in a sandbag to block water?
The best material to put in a sandbag is sand or other material that can be tightly packed like dirt or mulch. Don't use things that have sharp edges like rocks, as that can damage the bag and are less effective at blocking water since it is not as dense as something like sand.
Where do you put sandbags for flooding?
To prevent flooding make sure to put sandbags outside and against the entry points of your home (such as doors and garages) to form a wall. Also identify other areas where you will need to divert water from.
How to fill sandbags for flooding
Fill sandbags 1/2 to 2/3 full with your material (sand, dirt, mulch, gravel). Use the tie strings and tie the top. Then stack the bags like bricks, stacking the bag right in the middle of the 2 bags beneath it.
