Sand 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.

Area: - sq ft
Volume: - cubic yards
Weight: - tons
To order (with waste and compaction): - tons / - cubic yards
50 lb bags: -
Material cost: $-

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 sand for pavers, play areas, and leveling.

Density

Density for dry sand is about 1.30 to 1.50 tons per cubic yard.

Paver base

For a paver base, sand is a thin leveling layer over compacted gravel base, usually about 1 inch.

Note

Use for pavers, play areas, leveling; not as a driveway surface alone.

Estimate only. Confirm with your supplier before ordering.
