Sandbagging Resources

Sandbags can prevent flood damage to buildings

The use of sandbags is a simple, but effective way to prevent or reduce flood water damage.  Sandbag construction does not guarantee a water-tight seal, but is satisfactory for use in most situations and can help prevent costly water damage.

Sandbags can be used to:

  • Redirect storm water runoff to storm drains
  • Redirect overflowing storm runoff drains from personal property
  • Reduce leakage at closure structures
  • Prevent overtopping of dikes/levees
  • Direct a river's current flow to specific areas
