Sandbags

• Have to be replaced regularly which costs many thousands of pounds for big companies and local authorities that need palletised sandbags ready all year round for any emergency
• Can deteriorate if stored for a long time, especially in cold, damp warehouses
• Exceptionally unwieldy to lift and handle
• All kinds of health, safety and manual handling technique problems for staff who have to use them at businesses
• Messy with the sand easily washed out and adding to all the damage if they burst
• Heavy - hard to transport anywhere
• Need a lot of people to move any number anywhere
