FAQ

Do sandbags stop bullets?

While sandbags offer some protection against bullets due to their dense composition, they are not designed or certified as bulletproof barriers. Their primary purpose is to serve as temporary flood barriers or for stabilizing structures during construction, rather than as ballistic shields.

How to fill sandbags?

When filling sandbags, place them on the ground, with one person holding the bag open while another shovels sand inside. Fill the bag approximately two-thirds full, then fold the top flap down and tie it securely with string or the attached tie strings. Properly filled and tied sandbags ensure they can function effectively in flood control or erosion prevention scenarios. To make the filling process easier use our Sandbag Filler.

How to stack sandbags?

Stacking sandbags effectively involves placing them in a staggered pattern, much like building a brick wall. Offset each layer by half the length of a bag to create a stable and interlocking structure. This stacking method maximizes the barrier's strength and prevents gaps that may allow water to seep through.

How many sandbags do I need?

Use our sandbag calculator below. Keep in mind the number of sandbags required depends on the length, height, and thickness needed for the barrier. To calculate the quantity accurately, measure the area to protect, consider the anticipated flood water height, and consult with flood experts or local authorities for specific recommendations based on your location and situation.

How do sandbags work?

Sandbags work by absorbing and redistributing water pressure, redirecting the flow away from sensitive areas to prevent flooding. The dense material of the sandbags creates a barrier that impedes the water's progress, allowing time for water to be pumped away or for the floodwaters to recede. Their effectiveness lies in their ability to be quickly deployed and strategically positioned to provide temporary flood protection or stabilize structures during emergencies.
