I live on Florida's east coast. I keep 40 sandbags on a flat bed dolly in my garage. That way, if a hurricane threatens, I can roll them to areas I need to protect around my house. I'm a weak, elderly woman, but this method allows me to be self sufficient if I had to do it by myself.

Using these tips in Tallahassee, Florida.

I live on the east coast in Florida. Our town only hands out 4 or 5 sandbags per household. (Which is a joke.) Not only that, as is the case right now (as we’re preparing for Hurricane Dorian) you’ll wait in line for _at least_ an hour to get those 4 or 5 sandbags. That’s why I save my old cat and dog food bags and get sand from the beach and my backyard (where I intentionally don’t grow grass) to make my own sandbags.

Brilliant, thanks SES

Preparing for hurricane Ian. Good info. Thank you

honestly i just clicked cuz he looked like a power ranger from the thumbnail.

Just showed this to friends worried about 2022 hurricane... Great job...👍

I fill sand bags for a living we use tubes we pump out over 500 40 pound bags in a day

Thank you. I am about to be hit by hurricane Ian tomorrow, and I am expecting floods. So I will be laying tons of sandbags out.

Very good video!

thank you very execellent demo

Every time he said “ses” I thought he would say “yes yes”

Thanks

Really helpful.

Please reply ASAP but is sandbags useful for like what happened to the philippines Ulysses in tuguegarao?

Filled and stacked many a bag in Ar Ramadi in 03'.😊

This assumes there are not leaks or gap into the home other than the door. But still helpful

I was going to load some sand bags but I couldn't find my red safely jumpsuit!

So many places I didn't know about

Is this TDF Fleet training program ?

Hi folks! Why does the hessian sandbags is better than Poly sandbags? Do you have an e-mail for further informations about flooding? Thank you.

Preparing for hanna

Put some silicone all around each bag that should do the trick

How about the “holes” between bricks around the bottom of the house for house ventilation?

Would KITTY LITTER work in those bags?

How is the sand in the sandbag any different than the rest of the soil in the flooded area that it needs special disposal?

Hurricane Hilary brought me here🌧️

Thank you xx - most useful BUT the sand part is missing - can one use beach sand, if not where do we get sand from? I’m not in flood prone area but do need to isolate a section of my garage from seeping rain water in these unusual rainfalls.

anyone here for Dorian? :'D

I’m here for eta

The level of PPE is insane. Strapped in electrical resistant hardhats with 4"+ of high viz reflecting material. Z87 BCG safety glasses High viz coveralls with reflective tape above code. Full length hazmat gloves Steel toe leather over ankle boots with oil resistant anti slip treads. Surprised these guys don't have a backup alarm strapped to their tail end, a rotating light on the hard hat and chock blocks for the wheel barrel while loading.

Qld floods

Those poor guys must be dying in those jump suits

Make sure you only use old German Mercenary Sandbags. (Hessian's).

there's one thing you can do where you fill long ass tubes with water and that works really well

I live in Canada, Justin makes us all shovel his driveway snow because he’s better us, you’re part of us btw lol

crash

Good video... but holy shit, what the fuck is up with y’all’s flood water!!!! Looks like y’all have bigger problems than flooding!!!

Oh look, giant healthy humans, is there a tutorial for small unwell folks, people in wheelchairs, the elderly? Hessian bags cost $5 at bunnings. Where is this pile of sand? What if you don't have a ute? What if you don't have a second person? This is bollocks.
