The Sack is a plain burlap bag carried by hand. It is a simple container for loose goods. It is also the empty bag used to haul dirt, sand, gravel and compost.

As a bag it is light and cheap, but small. It holds 15 and takes half the weight off whatever is inside. Its real value is outside the inventory, as the bag that turns loose ground into building and farming material. It is common in barns and farm storage, and it can be sewn from a Burlap Piece.

The page covers several sacks that share the same stats. Among them are sacks found holding dead rats, dead mice, dead roaches or wheat. The Tailor is the best occupation for bags and containers. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.

Carrying

A Sack holds 15 and carries the load at half its weight. It is held in the hands rather than worn. A Sack slows running only slightly while carried.

Other hand bags of the same kind hold more. The Garbage Bag, Gunny Sack, Hide Sack and Tarp Sack each hold 20 at the same weight cut. A Plastic Bag holds only 8. Worn bags such as a Satchel or a Duffel Bag take more of the weight off.

Food kept inside a Sack still spoils. A whole Sack of food can be put in a freezer, where the food keeps like any other frozen food.

Tailoring

A Sack cannot tear. Ripping it gives a Burlap Piece. The Sew Sack recipe turns one Burlap Piece back into a Sack, using a Sewing Needle and some thread or twine.

A Sack can also be cut into a Burlap Headsack, a crude hood worn over the head.

Locations

The Sack is a common find on farms. Barn crates and shelves and farm storage hold one almost half the time. Restaurant kitchen counters are the next best places to look. Seafood, fried chicken, crepe, western and cafeteria kitchens hold one about a quarter of the time. Garden stores, sheds and tool stores turn one up now and then.

A Sack is also made in a few ways. Emptying a Sack of Dirt, Sand or Gravel gives back the empty Sack. Taking the clay out of a Sack of Clay does the same.

Notes

  • A Sack plus a shovel lets a character fill bags of dirt, sand or gravel from the ground.
  • With a Sack in hand, a full composter gives the option to take compost.
  • A Sack of Dirt spread on a tile makes ground that can be tilled for farming.
  • Sand and gravel sacks are used to build bulletproof walls with Carpentry.
  • A Garbage Bag holds more and is far easier to find, so the Sack is mostly a work bag.
