Soil Topsoil Calculator

Gravel Calculator

Volume = length × width × depth. 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet. Tons depend on material density, so the density used is shown in the result.

Estimate only. Density varies by quarry and moisture. For large orders, confirm with your supplier's scale ticket. Delivery, minimum order and labour are usually extra.

Estimate topsoil for raised beds and lawn topdressing.

Density

Planning density for dry topsoil is about 1.00 to 1.30 tons per cubic yard. Wet soil is heavier.

How to estimate

Measure area and depth, get cubic yards, convert to tons, and add 10 percent waste for settling.
