Self-serve sandbag sites are open 24 hours

Pasco County Sandbag Stations Available

Following weeks of heavy rain in Pasco County, and more rain in the forecast this coming weekend, Pasco County Government reminds everyone there are two sandbag stations open to help you protect your property from potential flooding.  Sand and sandbags are available at the following locations:

• Pasco County Public Works (C-Barn)

30908 Warder Road, San Antonio

• Magnolia Valley Golf Course

7223 Massachusetts Avenue, New Port Richey

These self-serve sandbag locations are open 24 hours to Pasco County residents.  Please bring a shovel and be prepared to fill your own sandbags.

The most effective placement for sandbags in a flood event includes entry and exit points of your home, such as doorways and garage areas.  To watch a Pasco County video explaining how to fill and place sandbags, click here: bit.ly/PascoSandbags.
