Save lives and property damage with the Big Bags USA system

Prepare your community for the next flooding event

Community leaders along with state and county planners have a challenging task preparing to protect their people from natural disasters.  Flooding is by far the most common and damaging event to property and lives for many localities.  Community leaders also struggle with getting the most out of their budgets and often focus on reacting to natural disasters versus preparing for the next one. By preparing and stockpiling supplies to deal with the next flood, lives can be saved, property damage greatly reduced, and tax payer money saved.


Traditional sandbags = huge cost in time and money

Flood ridden communities have traditionally relied on the sandbag to keep flood waters at bay.  Sand bagging is extremely time consuming and building walls of sandbags require huge amounts of manpower.  Sand bags can be very hard to deploy and redeploy, can rip easily, and may not keep water out of areas that have corners or other hard to reach areas.

Consider the Big Bags USA system in lieu of sandbags

With deployment 200 times faster than traditional sandbags, community leaders can free up desperately needed manpower to deal with other issues during the flood.  If flooding is imminent, this short deployment time can make the difference in mitigating casualties and severe property damage.  Our system can be used for stream diversion, building coffer dams, box culverts, levee topping, storm surge and shoreline protection.

Each system is ground forming and works on curves & uneven terrain.  The sand (or other fill) used is reusable and will be uncontaminated by flood water.  One system is equal to over 750 regular sandbags and are filled in place in less than 10 minutes.



Strategic planning to serve your community

Leaders at all levels of government can save money and better protect their communities by taking some time to strategically plan for the next flooding event.  Stockpiling flood protection barrier systems can be the best money they will ever spend.  For every dollar spend on preparedness, 4 dollars in recovery can be saved!
