How to use this calculator
- Enter length and width in feet and the depth in inches.
- Read the cubic yards needed.
How it works
Cubic yards = length(ft) × width(ft) × depth(ft) ÷ 27. The tool converts the depth from inches for you.
Worked example
10 ft × 10 ft × 4 in. ≈ 1.23 cubic yards.
Common mistakes
- Leaving the depth in inches in the formula — it must be converted to feet (÷ 12).
- Ordering exactly — add ~10% for compaction and spillage.
