Find how many cubic yards of mulch, soil, gravel, or any material you need to cover an area — a yards-of-material calculator with cubic yard coverage built in.
Estimate only — order 5-10% extra to cover settling and an uneven base.
Multiply length × width × depth to get cubic feet, then divide by 27 (the number of cubic feet in a cubic yard). As a rule of thumb, one cubic yard covers about 100 square feet at 3 inches deep, 162 square feet at 2 inches deep, or 324 square feet at 1 inch deep.
It depends on depth: at 3 inches deep, 1 cubic yard covers about 100 sq ft. Enter your area and depth above for an exact number.
27 cubic feet make one cubic yard (3 ft × 3 ft × 3 ft).
Yes — the volume math is the same regardless of material. For gravel with a bag size and cost estimate, try the gravel calculator.
