The Gravel Calculator estimates how much gravel is needed by volume and weight for a project. This Gravel Calculator estimates the materials or values you need for common home projects. Always add a waste margin to material estimates before placing an order.

The formula behind this calculator: Volume = length x width x depth, converted to tons using gravel's typical density (~1.4-1.7 tons/cu yd). As a practical example: Covering 200 sq ft at 3 inches deep needs about 2.5 cubic yards of gravel. All results are calculated instantly in your browser — no data is stored or transmitted.
