Rent a Sandbag - Blog 11

Why would you rent a sandbag?

People rent sandbags primarily to use them as temporary weight or ballast to stabilize structures like fencing, lighting equipment, backdrops, or other temporary setups at events construction sites or during filming. 

Sandbags are used primarily where they are needed to secure items against wind or movement without permanently altering location, essentially providing added stability without the need to build permanent fixtures. 

Event sandbags are not designed for flood protection. In flood-prone areas, sandbags are used to create barriers to divert water away from homes and prevent damage. However, if I had to protect my house, I would use whatever I could, including professional production sandbags. 

Events like concerts trade shows or film shoots use sandbags to weigh down lighting stands backdrops and other items to prevent tipping over. You don't want something to tip over and land on someone. Typically that would hurt. 

Rent some sandbags. Don't buy them. You don't want to store bags of dirt. That's what we do. www.sandbagrental.com
