How it's calculated

Area is derived from your shape inputs and converted to sq ft.

Depth is converted to feet; cubic feet = area × depth.

Cubic yards = cubic feet ÷ 27, then × (1 + waste %) × (1 + compaction %).

Estimated tons = cubic yards (with waste) × 2.

Truckloads = cubic yards (with waste) ÷ truck capacity.

Total cost = cubic yards (with waste) × price per cubic yard + delivery.

Material assumptions

  • Curbs are treated as a long footing: length × width × height.
  • Typical residential curb: 6 in wide × 6 in tall.
  • Order 10% extra for spillage and screeding losses.
