Locations Available for Sand Bags

Sandbag Availability
Where can I get sandbags from?

Sandbags can be purchased from some local hardware stores or landscaping suppliers. During times of flood and storm, your Sauk County Emergency Management and some local municipalities may distribute quantities. Contact your local Council or visit their web site for further information.
When significant flooding is occurring, sandbags maybe in limited supply and may only be issued by the Council or State Emergency Service (SES) on a case-by-case basis. So be prepared and purchase/prepare your own sandbags prior to, or when aware of an impending flood event.

Self-inflating sandbags are ready-to-use sandbags that do not require filling are a lightweight alternative to traditional sandbags. They will self-inflate when they are exposed to water and can be stored a long time. Self-inflating sandbags can be purchased from some local hardware stores or landscaping suppliers.
