How many yards of mulch would you need for a 30 ft X 18ft area?

To calculate the amount of mulch needed for a 30 ft by 18 ft area, first find the total square footage: 30 ft × 18 ft = 540 square feet. Mulch is typically sold by the cubic yard, and a depth of 3 inches (0.25 feet) is common for landscaping. To convert the area to cubic yards, use the formula: cubic yards = (square feet × depth in feet) / 27. Thus, you would need approximately 5 cubic yards of mulch for this area.


How much concrete will 4 yards cover?

I think you mean "How much area will 4 yards of concrete cover?". It depends on the slab thickness and whether or not anything significant is embedded (a lot of rebar, conduit, etc.). If working in feet, measure the width length and depth, multiply these numbers then divide the result by 27 to calculate the volume in cubic yards. A slab 9' 6" by 10' 4" by 6" thick translates to 9.5x10.3x.5 (48.93) /27 = 1.8 yards. Since you already have the volume, you will need to play with some of the dimensions to find something that works.


How many yards of concrete would it take to cover a 20ft x 20 ft x 4 inches thick?

20 feet x 20 ft x .3333 ft = 133.33 cubic feet / 27 cubic feet per yard = 4.94 cubic yards

How much mulch in a bucket?

The amount of mulch that fits in a bucket depends on the size of the bucket. A standard 5-gallon bucket can hold approximately 0.67 cubic feet of mulch when filled to the top. If you're using a smaller bucket, like a 2-gallon one, it would hold about 0.27 cubic feet. Always consider compaction and settling when measuring mulch for your gardening needs.

How do you figure out cubic yard for mulching?

You need to know how much area you are covering and how thick you want the mulch to be. Roughly 3 inches thick is good enough. That is 3/12 = 0.25 feet thick Take area in square feet times thickness in feet, which gives a volume in cubic feet, then divide by 27 to covert to cubic yards For example, if you want to mulch an an area that is 75 feet long and 5 feet wide, the volume is 75 x 5 x .25 = 93.75 cu ft 93.75/27 = 3.5 yards (3 and 1/2 yards)
