greetings and thank you very much for your time
Hello Eduardo,
Those bags are normally filled with sand, so as long as you can funnel the sand back into the bag I don't see any problem with dumping the sand out. Check to see if there is a way to empty and refill the sand then you should be good to go. You could just go to an apartment complex or swimming pool with a volleyball court and scoop up some sand in a bag. It doesn't take much, 3 or 4 handfuls should do it.
Good luck and I hope your move goes smoothly.
