Sandbag Availability
The County government’s sandbag supplies are for residents of “unincorporated” Hillsborough County, NOT for residents of the three cities. Find callers’ home addresses on this map to check residency. Zoom in or out to see which political boundary a home is in. Advise City of Tampa, Temple Terrace, and Plant City residents to contact their city government for official sandbag information.
Sandbags are not currently available. The information provided below is for training purposes.
