Installing less than the recommended amounts of stone can result in OK short term appearance but after a few years the stones somehow disappear and the ground reappears.When topdressing previously mulched beds you only need to add enough mulch to existing bed to get a total of 3".7 to 12 wheel barrow loads in 1 cubic yard.Typically a small pickup truck can take ⅓ - ½ cubic yard stone or soil.

Typically a full size truck can take ½ - 1 cubic yard stone or soil.Small size pick-up heaping load is 1 ½ cubic yards.Full size pick-up with 8’ box a heaping load is 3 cubic yards.Mulch weighs 250-750 lbs per cubic yard.Stone weighs about 2,700 lbs per cubic yard.Soil weighs about 2,200 lbs per cubic yard.27 cubic feet equal 1 cubic yard (3'L x 3'W x 3'H).There are 54 50lb bags of stone or sand per cubic yard.Example: Given a circle 30 feet across (15 ft radius) and you want 3 inches deepĬonversion Chart – Square Feet to Cubic YardsĬonverts square feet to cubic yards 1 cubic yard will cover the following amount of square feet at the given depth.Formula: Radius x Radius x 3.14 = square feet.Determine radius (1/2 distance of diameter or distance across).200 divided by 81 = 2.5 cubic yards (81 comes from the chart).Example: Given a triangle are where one side is 40 feet long, one side is 10 feet long and you want 4 inches deep of mulch or stone.160 divided by 81 = 2 cubic yards (81 comes from the chart, 81 is how many square feet 1 cubic yard covers at a 4 inch depth).Example: A rectangular area 16 feet long by 10 feet wide and you want 4 inches deep of stone.per yard (from chart) = cubic yards needed Determine desired depth of material (see recommended depths and chart below).
