The Bonita Springs Fire Department is giving out sand and sandbags for residents to take safety precautions ahead of Tropical Storm Nicole’s landfall.

According to a Facebook post from BSFD, sand and sandbags are located at 27701 Bonita Grande Drive. The sandbags are limited to 25 per Bonita Springs address. You will need to show proof that you are a Lee County resident.

People are encouraged to bring their shovels just in case BSFD’s shovels are in use. The sand is self-serve; people must fill their bags on their own.

For more information, please call (239) 949-6200.
