Volume of a Bulk Bag A bulk bag offers an endless amount of opportunities when it comes to its utility. Due to the variety of material types used in the construction, gardening and recycling industry, bulk bags have to be specifically designed for either fine, sharp, heavy, or light materials that range in mass, texture or humidity. Because of these variables, the thickness of fabric for a bulk bag appropriate for sand will differ from one meant for wood, meaning that the maximum load will also change. What remains the same for all of our bags? That each detail has been carefully thought out to ensure high quality and meet your bulk bag needs! What kind of material do you wish to transport in a bulk bag? Sand and/or gravel up to 1500 kg

Rocks, stones, or rubble up to 2000 kg

Soil up to 1000 kg

Mineral wool or other materials in small quantities up to 500 kg

The term Big Bag is not self explanatory. When you read "Big Bag", you immediately think of... you guessed it, a big bag! But here at 123BigBags, we have come to the realization that a Big Bag can often times mean a small bag, a rubble bag, a roof sheet bag, etc. The term Big Bag simply indicates the fact that we are talking about a bag that is really strong. You will find a great variety in the volume of a bulk bag, and here in 123BigBags we also offer small bags. Especially amongst our DIY customers, the smaller bulk bags have become increasingly popular for everyday uses. For example, these bags make great use as garden bags for green waste. For our business customers, they are popular for projects involving soil, sand and gravel. Contact our team without hesitation for more information.
