Systems and methods for safely transporting granular material

A sealed container for granular material, comprising:

• a rigid upper portion having an inlet;
• a rigid bottom portion having an outlet;
• a first fabric sleeve having a first open end and a second open end, the first open end coupled to the inlet of the upper portion and the second open end coupled to an upper mounting location of the upper portion;
• a second fabric sleeve having a third open end and a fourth open end, the third open end coupled to the outlet of the bottom portion and the fourth open end coupled to a lower mounting location of the bottom portion;
• and
• a third fabric sleeve having a fifth open end and a sixth open end, the fifth open end coupled to the second open end of the first fabric sleeve via the upper mounting location of the upper portion, and the sixth open end coupled to the fourth open end of the second fabric sleeve via the lower mounting location of the bottom portion,
• wherein the upper and lower mounting locations each comprise a pair of clamp rings spaced to receive a compression strap therebetween.

A container for liquid material, comprising:

• a cylindrical top plate having an inlet;
• a cylindrical bottom plate having an outlet;
• a first fabric sleeve having a first open end and a second open end, the first open end coupled to the inlet of the top plate and the second open end coupled to an upper mounting location of the top plate
• a second fabric sleeve having a third open end and a fourth open end, the third open end coupled to the outlet of the bottom plate and the fourth open end coupled to a lower mounting location of the bottom plate;
• and
• a third fabric sleeve having a fifth open end and a sixth open end, the fifth open end coupled to the second open end of the first fabric sleeve via the upper mounting location of the top plate, and the sixth open end coupled to the fourth open end of the second fabric sleeve via the lower mounting location of the bottom plate,
• wherein the upper and lower mounting locations each comprise a pair of clamp rings spaced to receive a compression strap therebetween.
