About coloured sandbags
Colour does real work on a site. Bright yellow and orange sandbags stand out to drivers and pedestrians when they weight down signs and barricades in a work zone. Black, tan and dark green bags blend into landscaping, film sets and event spaces where white bags would look out of place. Crews also use colours to mark zones or separate bag types on large projects. All colours are available filled or empty.

Coloured Sandbags FAQ
Requirements for traffic control devices and their ballast are set by provincial traffic manuals and the road authority that issues your permit, so check the specification for your job. Many crews choose orange or yellow bags simply because they are easier for drivers and pedestrians to see than white bags or bare sand, especially at dusk and in rain.
Black and tan bags are chosen when sandbags must be present but should not draw attention: weighting light stands and backdrops on film sets, holding down tent legs at weddings and corporate events, or sitting in garden beds and slopes. Dark colours also hide dirt better on reused bags, so they look tidier from one job to the next.
