Calculate cubic yards of mulch or gravel needed for landscaping projects. Enter area dimensions and desired depth for instant estimates.

Worked example

Mulch/gravel volume = Length × Width × Depth (inches) / 324 = cubic yards. A 10×20 foot area at 3 inches deep needs 1.85 cubic yards. One cubic yard covers about 162 sq ft at 2 inches deep.
