Handling and Storage Guidelines for Sand

Sand is a common material, but handling it right keeps things smooth. At Build For Guyana, we want you to stay safe. Here's how to handle and store sand properly.

Handling Guidelines

  • Protect Yourself: Wear a mask for dust, gloves if needed, and goggles.
  • Move Carefully: Use shovels or buckets for wet sand to avoid strain.
  • Ventilation: Work outdoors to reduce dust inhalation.

Storage Guidelines

  • Covered Spot: Keep it in a covered area to prevent blowing away.
  • Away from Water: Store on high ground to avoid clumping.
  • Dry Conditions: Ensure it's dry to maintain usability.

These practices help maintain quality. Build For Guyana is here if you need advice!
