*One cubic yard is equivalent to 13-1/2 two cubic foot bags.  **The following prices do not include delivery.

We realize that all flowerbeds are not perfect squares and rectangles, but trying to envision the beds in a length by width dimension is definitely the easiest way to estimate the material needed for your project.

Remember to figure the quantities needed for each bed in your landscape. Expect the average mulch product to settle by about 15 to 20 percent, and soil products to settle between 25 to 35 percent shortly after installation.

Coverage rates for stone products vary due to size and thickness. Please use the calculation chart for approximate coverage on those types of materials or contact our representative for coverage estimates.

One of the biggest areas of uncertainty for most homeowners buying landscaping materials is how much to buy, and what the cost will be. Our handy landscaping materials calculator below will help resolve these questions! Refer to pricing chart above as needed.

Mulch Calculator Expand

Our product calculator above is both a:

  • Mulch Volume Calculator
  • Mulch Cost Calculator

Review the list of mulches available above, and put the price per Cubic Yard into our handy Mulch Calculator, along with the size of the beds you're looking to mulch. Once calculated, we'll give you a total in terms of both volume and cost. Please remember, the calculation could result in a fractional amount; and the smallest increment our mulches are sold in is a 1/2-cubic yard loader bucket,  which means you would need to make a decision to go with more or less in some cases. If you're unsure of the mulch depth to use, 3 inches is usually a safe default. This can change for specific applications, so please research further if necessary.

Compost Calculator Expand

Our product calculator above is both a:

  • Compost Volume Calculator
  • Compost Cost Calculator

Review the list of Composts and Soil Mixes available above, and put the price per Cubic Yard into our handy Compost Calculator, along with the size of the area you're looking to compost. Hit "CALCULATE" and it will provide you with the approximate volume and price of material for your project. Please remember, the calculation could result in a fractional amount; and the smallest increment our mulches are sold in is a 1/2-cubic yard loader bucket,  which means you would need to make a decision to go with more or less in some cases.

Calculate Compost for Lawns:
A good-looking lawn doesn't require intense chemical treatment. After aerating your lawn, apply 1/4 – 1/2 inch of compost, and gently rake into existing soil. Water in thoroughly to assist new material into the subsoil.

Calculate Compost for Vegetable or Flower Gardens:
Add 1 – 3 inches of compost, and use a rototiller or manually mix the compost into your existing vegetable garden or flowerbed.

Sand or Gravel Calculator Expand

Our product calculator above is both a:

  • Sand Volume Calculator
  • Sand Cost Calculator
  • Gravel Volume Calculator
  • Gravel Cost Calculator

Review the list of sand, gravel or other aggregates available above, and put the price per Cubic Yard into our handy Sand or Gravel Calculator, along with the size of the area you're looking to cover. Hit "CALCULATE" and it will provide you with the approximate volume and price of material for your project. Please remember, the calculation could result in a fractional amount; and the smallest increment our mulches are sold in is a 1/2-cubic yard loader bucket,  which means you would need to make a decision to go with more or less in some cases.

If you're unsure of the Gravel or Sand depth to go with, you may need to research the type of application you're working on, as different applications require widely different depths.
