Sand Bag Savior plays it part in Fargo Flood Number 1 Sandbag Filling Device

Sandbag Savior allows for an effective and efficient sand bag filling.

A sandbag (floodbag) is a sack made of burlap, polypropylene or other materials that is filled with sand or soil and used for such purposes as flood control.

Advantages are that burlap and sand are inexpensive, and that the bags can be brought in empty and filled with local sand or soil.

Sandbags may be used during emergencies when rivers threaten to overflood, or a levee or dike is damaged. They may also be used in non-emergency situations (or after an emergency) as a foundation for new levees, or other water-control structures. Sandbags are not always an effective measure in the event of flooding because water will eventually seep through the bags and finer materials, like clay, may leak out through the seam
