Calculated from your measurements.
How it's calculated
Volume = length × width × depth × quantity. Order volume = volume × (1 + waste ÷ 100).
Calculations use consistent units for your selected measurements. The waste allowance is applied once to the measured requirement. Whole purchase quantities are rounded up.
What this estimate includes
Enter internal dimensions and intended fill depth. Subtract drainage layers or existing material from that depth.
