The City of Lancaster is pleased to provide six locations throughout the community for members of the public to obtain sand in order to fill sandbags in preparation for coming winter storms. The sand stockpiles are located throughout Lancaster and are being made available to all Lancaster citizens. Citizens are encouraged to first utilize any excess dirt located on or near their property in order to maximize local resources toward this effort.

To collect sand at the identified stockpile locations, citizens must bring their own tools and sandbags. All Antelope Valley fire stations are offering 25 unfilled sandbags per citizen. In order to obtain the best results, citizens are advised to avoid overfilling their sandbags. Leave enough room to allow for the bags to be tied off and easily stacked. Overfilling the bags may cause them to tear and not stack properly, which will in turn compromise sandbag barriers, thus allowing water to flow through openings.

The sand stock pile sites are shown below, as well as on the attached map.
