Filling and Stacking Sandbags

[Image: Filling Sandbags]

How to Fill Sandbags

Fill the bags one-half to two-thirds full. The bag, when filled, should lie fairly flat. Over-filled bags are firm and don't nestle into one another; tight bags make for a leaky sandbag wall. Tying is not necessary.

How to Stack Sandbags

Stack sandbags so the seams between bags are staggered. Flip the top of each bag under so the bag is sealed by its own weight.
