Marana

Self-serve sandbag filling locations will be activated based on the weather forecast. When severe weather is forecasted, the Town will notify residents and activate those three locations.

Once activated, sandbags can be picked up at the following locations:

Oro Valley

Town residents can pick up sandbags through the duration of the 2022 monsoon (or while supplies last) at Naranja Park, 810 W. Naranja Drive.

Due to limited supplies, there is a limit of 10 sandbags per vehicle.

At Naranja Park, follow the signs to an area about 600 feet north of the “Christmas tree recycling lot,” on the west side of the entry road.

Sandbags are self-service; the town will provide the bags and sand, but you will need to bring your own shovel and load your own sand.

Anyone who needs assistance can make an appointment with town staff to pick up pre-bagged sand at a designated time. To book your appointment please contact staff at Stormwater Utility at 520-229-4850 or PW@orovalleyaz.gov.
