Using FIBC Bulk Bags In Landscaping

Landscaping businesses have to deal with a lot of materials in bulk — topsoil, mulch, wood chips, etc. Hauling and storing all of that can be a hassle, especially because the packaging most of it comes in — plastic bags — is notoriously unreliable.

Landscapers can lose a lot of their precious materials because of rips and tears. Simply dumping dirt or mulch onto a customer’s driveway means wind or rain can carry it away. Landscapers may not know about it, but FIBC bulk bags can provide them with the perfect solution for their bulk storage and transportation needs.

When you deploy these sturdy and re-usable containers as landscape bags, you get great performance for a number of reasons. Here are a few of the reasons why transporting or storing mulch or soil in a bulk bag makes a lot of sense:

• They’re durable: Made of woven polypropylene fibers, FIBC bulk bags are extremely resistant to tearing and punctures. This makes them perfect for hauling wood chips or other materials that might poke through a plastic bag. Plus, because they’re so strong, you can load them without worrying about whether or not they’ll burst.

• They keep you organized: Ordinarily, delivering multiple materials to a customer’s property means delivering in separate trucks or using dividers to separate them in the bed of the truck. With bulk bags, however, you can simply fill one with gravel, one with topsoil, one with mulch, etc., and you’ll have an easy-to-unload delivery where everything is kept in its own place.

• They protect your investment: Bulk bags also help keep materials where they’re supposed to be instead of being blown or washed away by the elements. When materials such as mulch and dirt are kept on-site in bulk bags, landscapers have the opportunity to cover their materials to protect them from bugs and vermin, as well. They also make cleanup a lot easier when the job’s done — so landscapers won’t have to worry about leaving a lot of debris behind once they use their materials.

Bulk bags are extremely durable, which makes them perfect for landscaping applications. Take a look at the bulk bags Procon Pacific has to offer and learn more about how they can help landscapers get their work done easier.
