Calculate how much

Use the cubic yard calculator for volume only, or the guided calculator for help with materials, shapes, tonnage, and a 10% allowance.

Cubic yard calculator

Enter the length, width, and depth of a rectangular area.

Enter all three dimensions to see the cubic yardage.

For a standard gravel estimate, multiply cubic yards by 1.5 (1 cubic yard ≈ 1.5 tons). Material weights can vary, and our website’s material calculators help estimate the amount you need using the selected material’s conversion factor.

Enter delivery details

At checkout, enter the complete delivery address so we can estimate hauling, loads, and tax, then choose ASAP, a deadline, or a delivery day and time. We deliver Monday through Saturday, and same-day delivery can be booked until 3 PM. Make sure there is a safe place for the truck to dump.
