Soil Volume Calculator

Calculate soil volume needed in cubic yards, cubic metres, and bags.

6 in = 15.2 cm

Volume Needed

Cubic Yards

1.9

yd³

Cubic Metres

1.42

30L Bags

48

bags

50.0 cubic feet total

Methodology & Notes

Formula: Area (sq ft) x Depth (in) / 12 = cubic feet. Divided by 27 = cubic yards. Multiplied by 0.7646 = cubic metres. 30L bags = cubic metres x 1000 / 30. Plan 5-10% extra for settling.
