Before you calculate
All resources- How to measure a yard for a landscape projectRecord the dimensions, exclusions and material depth you need before estimating a yard project.
- Gravel and landscape rock: sizes, shapes and namesCompare common stone descriptions and learn which product details to confirm before ordering.
- Choosing mulch for beds, paths and treesCompare mulch materials by the job they need to do, then check application depth and placement.
- Topsoil, garden soil, compost or potting mix?Read soil-product labels by intended use rather than treating every bag of soil as interchangeable.
From measurements to a useful estimate
Start with your project dimensions. Choose the output you need, then replace product yields, densities and rates with values for the materials you plan to use. Each calculator explains the method and walks through an example, so you can check what the result means before buying or applying anything.
