    Is this an inflated roller to move a heavy object?

    Blow the bag up. Place a known weight on it. Place the bag onto the sand...then pull low down with a calibrated balance so when the bag starts to move, you have the load required to initiate movement = coeff. of friction. Since the load to pull is = W x coeff of friction. You'll have the Force/load (from the balance), then with the known weight (W) you can calculate the coeff of friction. As a good rough estimate, that's the best/quickest way.
