I will use mine for the Adult Use Recreational plants legal in my state. I started out a few years back with much smaller sacks, each upgrade I've been doubling in size. If all but 30 or 40 gallons of material is removed the 4 sturdy handles might actually be of help to move this planter if the soil is dry. I believe these sacks will hold approx. 16 cubic feet equal to 2 x 8 cu ft wheelbarrow, maybe a bit more. Be sure to store them considering rodents like the material for nests and will chew holes. Anxious for the growing season!
