Sandbag Stations Stocked and Open
Post Date:02/13/2026 9:54 AM
With an incoming storm expected to begin this weekend, the City of Goleta would like to remind you of its two self-service sandbag stations.
- Fire Station 11 (6901 Frey Way and Storke Road just south of Santa Felicia, across from the main post office)
- Fire Station 14 (320 Los Carneros Road next to the Stow House Museum lot)
Here are some things you should know about sandbag pick up:
- Sand and bags are available on a first come, first served basis.
- Bring your shovel to fill the bags.
- Pick up is open during daylight hours, seven days/week.
- 20 bag limit (additional bags can be purchased at home improvement stores).
- Bags are intended for Goleta community members! Please don't take more than you need to allow others who may need the sand and bags more.
- It is easiest to fill the bags with two people — one to hold the bag and the other to shovel the sand.
The City of Goleta is monitoring the storm and is in contact with emergency officials. For the latest information, visit Santa Barbara County's ReadySBC webpage.
