Keep your tarps and covers weighted down with reusable ARK Sandbags. The zipped opening makes filling and closing straightforward, while the flexible design allows the bags to follow the shape of the surface beneath them.
Suitable for weighing down silage and weed control tarps, furniture covers and more, with two lengths to suit your setup.
Available in two sizes:
The longer bag holds more sand and provides greater weight when similarly filled. Filled weight depends on the amount of sand used.
Fill with sand only, leaving approximately 5 cm below the zipper. Do not overfill or force the zip closed.
For a more flexible shape, partially fill the bag and distribute the sand evenly.
Lift and place filled bags rather than dragging or throwing them. Keep away from sharp objects.
Reusable Sandbags for Tarps, Covers & Everyday Outdoor Use
ARK Sandbags provide a practical way to weigh down silage tarps, weed control tarps, furniture covers, and more. From the backyard to the farm, these reusable sandbag weights help keep covers and other items in position.
Made from tough 200 GSM XF Film, our sandbags feature UV-resistant material, welded seams and a convenient zipped opening. Simply fill with sand and close the zip—no tying required. Designed for repeated outdoor use, they are easy to empty, refill and move between applications.
Choose from 0.5 m or 1 m lengths, both 15 cm wide, to suit your setup. Partially filling the bags allows you to shape them into flat, U-shaped or S-shaped weights, making them useful along tarp edges, around furniture legs and over sign bases.
