The Sand Bag Carrier is a high-strength bag lifting device engineered for efficient movement of bulk bags on construction and industrial sites. Designed to reduce manual handling risks, this bag carrier uses four lifting points to stabilise heavy loads during relocation.
Built to be compatible with fork-mounted swivel hooks, the attachment connects securely through a central lifting eye. Once engaged, its four latch points support lifting straps from most standard-sized bulk bags, providing safety and stability throughout the operation.
Operators benefit from a straightforward setup and clear visibility when lifting. The durable steel construction and balanced lifting system allow the bag carrier to manage heavy-duty work environments with minimal maintenance needs.
- Reduces manual handling strain – Designed to streamline the lifting of filled sandbags and bulk material.
- Reliable bag lifting device – Four hooks support even load distribution for safe transport.
- Quick, safe hook-up – Compatible with standard fork hook attachments on telehandlers and forklifts.
- Durable steel construction – Resists wear and tear on active job sites.
- Ideal for bulk site operations – Widely used in construction, groundwork and road maintenance.
This bag lifting device simplifies common lifting challenges on site. Whether managing aggregate delivery, flood defence work or routine groundwork, the carrier’s hook-based system offers practical support for heavy loads. The lifting process requires minimal effort once connected, reducing downtime and improving site workflow.
It is supplied with a central lifting eye that easily pairs with standard fork-mounted hooks. Once attached, the operator simply inserts the bag loops into the hook latches, ensuring secure grip before proceeding. Evenly distributed weight reduces risk of swinging or load failure.
Certified for up to six months from manufacture, this attachment supports compliance with site safety standards. Weekly checks on welds, components and potential rust are recommended to extend service life and ensure readiness.
HERMEQ stock a wide range of Scaffolding, Building Supplies, Lifting & Groundworks Equipment conforming to all required safety specifications and regulations.

The Sand Bag Carrier is suitable for lifting evenly distributed loads only. All four lifting hooks must be used at all times to ensure load stability. Prior to use, the bag carrier, bag straps, and swivel hook should be thoroughly inspected. Never exceed the maximum rated capacity, and avoid any shock loading or sudden drops during operation. The unit is certified for six months from manufacture and should be regularly maintained to remain safe and operational.
This carrier is widely used for flood control, sand delivery, and bulk material handling in groundwork and civil engineering projects. It is not suitable for uneven or swinging loads, and usage must always follow proper hook positioning through the centre lifting eye. Operators should stay clear of the suspended bag during all lifting movements.
