Mulch & Landscape Calculator

Use this calculator for mulch and leaf composite products to calculate how many Cubic Yards you will need. *For  sand and rock products, you will  use Total Tons below.

Shape Selection: Rectangle Triangle Circle The “depth” must be between 1 and 12 inches. Please try again.
Length (feet):
Width (feet):
Depth (inches):
Cubic Yards:
Total Tons*:

How to figure rectangle manually:

  1. Length x Width = Square Feet
  2. Square Feet ÷ “X” = Cubic Yards (to find “X,” match depth with number in table below)
  3. To convert Cubic Yards to Tons*: Cubic Yards x 1.4 = Tons
  4. To convert Tons to Cubic Yards*: Tons ÷ 1.4 = Cubic Yards
* 1.4 is a rule of thumb that will work for most sand and gravel products (1 yard = 2,800#). Some products such as soils and mixes may vary due to their different bulk densities (weight per cu. yd).
Example 1: 2,000 Square Ft. bunker at 6″ deep 2,000 ÷ 54 = 37 Cubic Yards Bunker Sand 37 x 1.4 = 52 Tons
Example 2: To cover cart path 1,200′ x 4′ x 3″ deep 1,200 x 4 = 4,800 square feet 4,800 ÷ 108 = 44.5 cubic yards gravel 44.5 x 1.4 = 63 tons
