Gravel Calculator Guide
The Gravel Calculator estimates cubic yards, tons, and bags of gravel for driveways, paths, and landscaping. Enter the area dimensions and desired depth to instantly see volume, weight, and truck loads needed.
Gravel depth depends on the application: 2–3 inches for decorative ground cover, 4–6 inches for walkways, 6–8 inches for driveways. Use a geotextile fabric under the gravel to prevent mixing with soil and reduce weed growth.
Gravel is sold by the cubic yard (bulk delivery) or in bags (50 lb / 0.5 cu ft). Bulk delivery is significantly cheaper for projects over 2 cubic yards. One truckload is approximately 10 cubic yards. Always order 10% extra to account for uneven ground and compaction.
