Frequently Asked Questions

What is a builders bag?

A builders bag is a large, heavy-duty sack made from woven polypropylene, designed for transporting and storing bulk materials like sand, gravel, and construction waste. Also known as one-tonne bags or builders dumpy bags, they are commonly used in the building and landscaping industries due to their strength, durability, and ease of transport.

How do you get rid of builders bags?

If your builders bulk bags are still in good condition, they can often be reused for future projects or repurposed for storage. Many waste management companies and recycling centres accept builders waste bags, especially if they are clean and free from hazardous materials. Some suppliers may also offer a collection or recycling service, so it's worth checking with your local provider.

How much is in a builders bag?

The capacity of a builders bag varies, but Tarpaflex’s standard 1-tonne builders bags typically hold around 850–900kg of materials, depending on density. While they are often referred to as one-tonne bags, they are usually filled just below capacity to ensure safe handling and transportation.

What are the strongest rubble bags?

For handling sharp, heavy, or rough debris, heavy-duty builders bags made from reinforced woven polypropylene offer the best strength and durability. These are specifically designed for carrying bricks, rubble, and hardcore materials without tearing or splitting, making them the most reliable choice for demanding construction and demolition work.
