Planning a landscaping project?
Most landscaping projects follow a predictable sequence: measure the area, calculate materials, add 10-15% waste, then order delivery. Here are the rules of thumb pros use.
Always add 10-15%
Bulk orders need extra for settling, compaction, and edge waste.
Bulk at 2+ yards
Bulk delivery pays off at 2+ cubic yards. Below that, bagged is often cheaper.
Measure twice
Cross-measure in two directions. A 10% measuring error becomes real money on large projects.
