Gravel & stone calculators
Gravel is sold by volume or by weight, so these calculators give you both: cubic yards and tons, or cubic metres and tonnes, plus bag counts for smaller jobs. Pick a stone type to load a typical density, add an allowance for compaction, and replace the example prices with your supplier's quote.
