To
use the chart above just determine the square footage of the area and
look for that number to the left side of the chart. Then determine the
depth of the topsoil or mulch you feel is needed and find that number
along the top of the chart. Where the two boxes intersect will be the
approximate cubic yards of topsoil or mulch needed. Remember, when
using the chart for topsoil calculations, add 20% to the yardage
recommended on the chart to account for compaction.
