Landscaping Calculators
Bulk materials like gravel, mulch, topsoil, and sand are sold by the cubic yard, but most people think in feet and inches. These calculators bridge that gap, turning bed, path, or pit dimensions into order-ready yardage with realistic depth guidance for each material. You will also find a paver calculator for patios and walkways, so hardscape and softscape stay in one place.

Landscaping FAQs
Mulch typically goes down 2–3 inches; gravel for a walkway 2–4 inches, deeper for driveways that carry vehicles. The calculators suggest standard depths for each material, but always check the product label's coverage rate.
No — the volume is identical (27 cubic feet), but the weight varies enormously. A cubic yard of topsoil can weigh over a ton, while a yard of mulch weighs a fraction of that. Confirm your delivery truck's capacity by weight as well as volume.
