A single barrier is equal to over 750 regular sandbags. These flood barrier systems can be setup in a matter of minutes, providing quick and easy flood protection. They are packaged seven systems per pallet - that's 105 linear foot of protection that can be easily stockpiled. All flood control mitigation plans should include a product like Big Bags USA®!

Big Bags USA® flood barriers can be filled using many different types of equipment such as: skid steers, back hoes, front end loaders, conveyor belt trucks, crane booms, and even cement mixers when using a slurry.
