Calculation Breakdown:
• Area dimensions: 10 ft × 10 ft = 100.0 ft²
• Mulch depth: 3 inches (0.25 ft)
• Volume: 10 × 10 × 0.25 = 25.00 ft³
• Cubic yards: 25.00 ft³ ÷ 27 = 0.93 yd³
• 2 cu ft bags: 25.00 ft³ ÷ 2 = 13 bags
• 3 cu ft bags: 25.00 ft³ ÷ 3 = 9 bags
💡 Pro Tip:
For large areas (over 3 cubic yards), consider buying bulk mulch by the truckload instead of bags for significant cost savings. Apply mulch in spring and refresh annually. Keep mulch 2-3 inches away from plant stems and tree trunks to prevent rot.
