Sign & Barricade Sandbags in Canada
Heavy-duty sandbags that keep sign stands, barricades, delineators and fencing bases planted in wind and passing traffic.
About sign and barricade sandbags
Signs and barricades that tip over stop warning anyone and become a hazard themselves. Sign and barricade sandbags are heavy-duty bags sized to drape over sign-stand legs, barricade feet, delineator bases and temporary fence stands, keeping them planted against wind and the draft from passing trucks. Traffic control companies, road crews and event teams use them because they sit low, conform to the base and can be moved by hand between set-ups.

Sign & Barricade Sandbags FAQ
It depends on the device, its height and the exposure of the site. Many crews place at least one bag per foot or leg and add more on open highways, bridges and windy corners. Your provincial traffic control manual, the device manufacturer and the road authority on your permit set the actual requirement, so use those as the rule.
Sandbags fit almost any base shape, stay in place on slopes and uneven ground, and do not freeze and crack like water weights in a Canadian winter. They are also easy for one worker to carry and redeploy. Many fleets keep rubber bases for permanent set-ups and sandbags for quick, flexible ballast.
