How this is calculated

Cubic yards = (area in sq ft × depth in inches) ÷ 324. Estimated weight assumes ~2,200 lb per cubic yard for moist topsoil — actual weight varies with composition and moisture content, so treat it as a delivery-planning estimate rather than an exact figure.

Typical depths: 0.25–0.5 in to topdress an existing lawn, 1–2 in to level low spots, 4–6 in to fill a new bed.
