Sandbags Filling Tips:
- Fill sandbags ½ to ⅔ full and tie the bag at the top (lay flat when in place). This sandbag should weigh between 35-40 lbs. An overfilled sandbag weighs between 60-75 lbs and will leave gaps which will allow water to seep through.
- Always wear gloves during filling operation to avoid hand injuries and protect from contaminants in sand and floodwater. Safety goggles should be used on dry and windy days. Filling sandbags is physically demanding work and can easily cause back and other injuries if not careful. Always lift with your legs and not your back. Do not reach out, bend over, or twist when lifting.
- Do not throw sandbags – it stresses the back and shoulders. Rather use a brigade line to pass bags
- Use a short handled, #2 rounded point shovel with straight shaft and D grip, bagger scoop or funnel to fill sandbags.
- Remove any debris from the areas where the sandbags will be placed. After placing the sandbag, walk on sandbags to create a tight seal between each bag.
Fill Materials
- Sandbaggy sandbags are built to withstand both gravel or sand. Be aware of poor quality sandbags that rupture when filled with sharp gravel rocks.
- Gravel should be filled in sandbag when used as an erosion control device (on slopes). Sand should be filled for flood control needs, whether to protect doors or garage or to divert water. If sand or gravel is not accessible, less effective solutions is to fill the sandbags with backyard soil.
- 1 cubic yard – amount of sand/gravel it takes to fill 75 40-pound bags

Common FAQs
Are sandbags effective against flooding? Sandbags are an effective way to prevent flooding. Sandbags act as a water barrier to divert water, this is due to sands course 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 setup.
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.
Which sandbags last the longest? The longest lasting sandbags will depend on how it’s made, such as what materials it’s made from, the thickness (how much of the materials were used), as well as any other things added to reinforce the sandbag. This Sandbaggy Green Sandbag is made to be 25% thicker than our competitor’s sandbags and last 50% longer under the Sun (up to 6 to 24 months VS 2-3 months – Our Competitors).
How heavy is a military sandbag? Military sandbags will vary in weight depending on the size and the weight capacity of the bag. Try to fill your sandbag up to half full as a best practice.
What size are military sandbags? Military grade sandbags should be around 24″ x 14″ up to 27″ x 16″. These size bags are perfect for building earthbag homes.
How long do military sandbags last? When used for the military, sandbags should be able to last at least the standard 1,600 hours in the sun which is the industry standard. Sandbaggy sandbags last longer though. We tell customers between 6 to 24 months under direct sunlight depending on which part of the country and number of sunny days your location experiences.
