Flexible container for storing sand

Abstract

A container for the storage of sand, the container being of the type which may be stored in a motor vehicle such as a car or truck and which may be used to deliver sand to the wheels of a car stuck in the mud or snow. The container comprises a circular bottom and an elongated frustoconical body portion extending from the circular bottom, the body portion defining a pouring spout for pouring sand stored in the container. Because the body portion is elongated, sand can be delivered in difficult to reach places such as underneath a car. The container is preferably made out of a flexible water repellant fabric which may be folded over and affixed in the folded position to close the container during non-use. The container may also include a reflector mounted thereon to allow the use of the container as an emergency road reflector.
