Gravel Calculator
Suppliers may sell gravel by the ton or by the cubic yard, and weight varies with the type of stone. Enter the density your supplier quotes to get both figures.
Your result appears here after you press Calculate.
How it is calculated
- Cubic yards = area × (depth ÷ 12) ÷ 27, plus waste.
- Tons = cubic yards × density in tons per cubic yard.
Assumptions and limits
- Around 1.4 tons per cubic yard is a common planning figure for crushed stone, but it varies. Ask the supplier.
- Compaction reduces depth, so ask whether to order extra.
Material estimates are for planning and ordering guidance. Coverage, yield and dimensions vary by product, so check the manufacturer's labeling. Structural work, roofing at height and code compliance should be handled by qualified professionals and confirmed with your local building department.
