How To Figure Out The Area Of Your Landscape Beds:

1. With a measuring tape, measure how many feet long the bed is. Then measure how many feet wide. Multiply these two figures. The total is the square foot area of that landscape bed.
2. Decide how thick you want your mulch to be (2" is average). For new landscape beds, 4" of mulch is recommended. If you are just top dressing a previously mulched bed, you may wish to use as little as 1" of mulch. Using the Mulch Calculator to the right, you can figure how many cubic yards of mulch, soil or gravel to order.
3. If you still have questions, please call our corporate office at 559.625.9426. If you have the total area calculated, we'd be happy to help you figure the amount of mulch, soil or gravel you will need.
