How to calculate how much earth you need delivered manually:<\/p>

Multiply the area in square feet by depth of needed topsoil in inches divided by 12. Next, divide the total in cubic feet by 27 to get the number of cubic yards of earth to order.<\/p>

Example: 30 feet long x 10 feet wide x 3 inches deep \u00f7 12 = 75 ft3<\/sup> \u00f7 27 = 2.75 yd3<\/sup> of topsoil to get delivered!<\/p>
