my old concrete in a bunch of trash bags has busted up and breaking though. Thinking i will buy some cheap heavy duty dry bags and fill them with sand. Anyone have a rough weight to size? 30L weighs 20lb sort of thing

a five gallon pail must be around 50# 5 gallon = 19 liters.

maybe weigh a 5 gallon pail full to get a more accurate idea?

I've been filling these 18"×30" poly bags with sand or gravel to make training bags of various weights. I double bag for good measure since they're so cheap ($12 for 10). I haven't had any leaks or rips yet in a couple years of use. I don't know how much they would weigh completely full, but I do know that 50 lbs of sand fits easily.
