Your estimated materials

Planning estimate only. Site conditions, product specifications and installation methods vary. Verify all figures with your supplier or installer before ordering.

How the calculation works

Soil volume = area × depth in metres. Weight = volume × density. Bulk bags = total weight ÷ supplier bag weight, rounded up.

Before you order

Soil is commonly sold by volume as well as weight. Check supplier specifications; wet soil can be considerably heavier.
