Soil Calculator Guide

The Soil Calculator estimates cubic yards and bags of topsoil, garden soil, fill dirt, or compost for landscaping projects.

Soil depth varies by project: 4–6 inches for new beds, 2–3 inches for topdressing lawns, 8–12 inches for raised beds.

Soil settles 10–15% after watering, so order slightly more than calculated. Avoid working with waterlogged soil.
