1 CY (cubic yard) = 3 ft x 3 ft x 3ft

covers approx. 10' x 10' and 3" deep

Soil & Mulch Calculator Only:
Use the below "automated" calculator by entering your width and length in the white area to get the "square foot" and enter the "inches" in the "Depth of the Layer" to help determine your various product needs by cubic yards: 

LENGTH  X  WIDTH  X  DEPTH  ÷  27 = Total Cubic Yards

(Square Feet = Length x Width)

​

EXAMPLE:   25'  X  15'  X  .25 (3") ÷ 27  =  3.47 Cubic Yards

​

DEPTH TABLE by INCHES (to use in formula above): 

         1" ---   .083                       13" --- 1.083                     25" --- 2.083

         2" ---   .166                       14" --- 1.166                     26" --- 2.166

         3" ---   .25                         15" --- 1.25                       27" --- 2.25

         4" ---   .333                       16" --- 1.333                    28" --- 2.333

         5" ---   .416                       17" --- 1.416                    29" --- 2.416

         6" ---   .5                           18" --- 1.5                         30" --- 2.5

         7" ---   .583                       19" --- 1.583                    31" --- 2.583

         8" ---   .666                       20" --- 1.666                    32" --- 2.666

         9" ---   .75                         21" --- 1.75                      33" --- 2.75

       10" --- .833                         22" --- 1.833                    34" --- 2.833

       11" --- .916                         23" --- 1.916                    35" --- 2.916

       12" ---  1                             24" ---  2                           36" ---  3

Formula below is if you want to use your own calculator but should have exact same formula in the

"Soil & Mulch Calculator" above:

ADD:
 Width & Length by Feet in
Whole #'s
ADD: 
Depth by inches
