The Cost Savings Associated with Big Bags USA®

Traditionally, flood mitigation plans used tiny sandbags, stacked up to create barriers. This system took endless hours and lots of man power to create any type of flood protection. Today, there's a better way to go about it! Keep reading to learn about all the ways you can save on costs by choosing Big Bags USA®.

Big Bags USA® Flood Barriers


The most notable benefit of using Big Bags USA® flood barriers over traditional sandbags is the price comparison. We offer high quality flood barrier systems at a great economic price, with the most affordable price per linear foot. One Big Bags USA® protective flood barrier system replaces 750 regular sandbags. If you were to stack regular sandbags to meet 40” in height, it would equal 1,500 sandbags. By using the Big Bags USA® systems, you save 52% on the raw materials alone.

The second highly notable benefit of our systems is the reduced amount of resources needed to deploy the systems. The simplistic design allows more systems to be deployed by fewer workers, using less training and natural resources, than traditional sandbags. One Big Bags USA® flood barrier system can be placed and filled by two men in less than 10 minutes! That’s equal to 15 lineal foot every ten minutes. There is no sandbag deployment method that equals the speed in which a Big Bags USA barrier can be placed.

Using Big Bags USA® equals major cost savings. Take a look at this list of ways you'll save when you choose our flood barrier systems over traditional sandbags:

Additional Savings 


Lower operating costs, less freight and machine maintenance, less fuel cost and less labor all contributes to a better looking bottom line. In addition to your savings in deployment though, Big Bags USA® sandbags offer more ways to save. The water side of the Big Bags USA® protective flood barrier system is impermeable; this means our sand is protected against harmful contaminants. Uncontaminated sand can be sold back to quarries at a reduced price or used in projects that would otherwise need new sand product.

Keep reading to learn more about hyrophobic soils and why people in California and other wildfire prone areas need to be prepared and have flood protection on hand.
