The Do’s & Don’ts of Finding the Best Flood Barrier for your Protection

Flooding is a crisis that can occur at a moment's notice, without any warning at all. As such, it’s essential for your protection that you stay proactive in your flood preparedness. There are many flood protection companies and resources out there, but having a fast and reliable source you can trust can give you peace of mind and better protection. When choosing the best flood barrier on the market, here are a few things to consider.


Do Look For Companies With a Fast Track Record

When a storm approaches, and flooding is knocking at the door, you generally have some time to prepare. It could be weeks, it could be days, but there is often enough time to get prepared. When looking for companies and resources who can assist with flooding, someone with speed is key. The Big Bags USA® team travels around the country to help communities prepare for flooding when they need it. We can be there with a load of efficient flood barriers, and the know how to help your community set it up.

Do Find Companies With Quality Products

Protecting against flood waters is not as simple as laying a few sandbags and hoping for the best. There were many reasons we created our fast flood barrier system, but one reason is that we knew that communities needed a flood barrier system that wasn't just fast but could be used multiple times. Big Bags Flood barriers are designed so effectively that you can use them several times, all depending on the type of wear and tear they receive, as well as how they are stored.

Do Remember That “Free” Isn’t Better

The fact of the matter is, what you invest is what you get. There are many flooding products on the market, and there are plenty that are available at lower costs - but what do YOU want when you are faced with high waters? A free product that may or may not protect your home and your possessions from the high waters, or a product that is trusted, American made, and still affordable? Big Bags USA has invested money and time to provide a product that is high-quality. Here are a few things you can expect from a Big Bags USA® flood barrier:

 

▪ 6mm thick polypropylene, made with the highest UV resistant polymers available to increase longevity in sunlight.

▪ The flexibility of the barrier allows the product to be used on any and all surfaces without the need for trenching or leveling to get a water-tight seal.

▪ 200 times faster to deploy than traditional sandbag walls.

▪ Uses 1/2 the amount of sand used in a sandbag wall built to the same height.

▪ Not only is the bag re-usable, but the sand can also be kept in the bags and stored in a warehouse for the next use.

 

Don’t Trust That Your Officials Know About The Best Products

We are an American run business with products made right here in the USA. That doesn't mean that we are the most well-known, and it doesn't mean that your city officials know about the Big Bags USA Flood Barrier System. If you’ve visited our website, watched our videos, and following our social media channels - you know the validity of our products. It's time to put action to your knowledge and share our products with your community leaders. If you live in a city that experiences flooding, and you are reading this blog, it is your civic duty to call your leaders and tell them that you want Big Bags in your town. If you aren't sure what to say, here are a few important points about our system:

 

▪ Systems can be re-used. No need to budget for new systems every year.

▪ Deploys faster than any other barrier on the market.

▪ No costly contracts for clean-up. Simply warehouse the bags, sand included, for the next use.

Floodwaters cannot be stopped once they start flowing, just diverted, and with flooding being such a sudden catastrophe, being prepared is of utmost importance. The Midwest has proven to be prone to flooding in the past due to snowmelt and spring rains maxing out rivers and keeping the soil from being able to absorb water. At Big Bags USA®, our large sandbag barrier system is the most versatile and rapidly deployable flood barrier on the market.
