How To Figure The Area Of Your
Landscape Beds or The Area You Want To Mulch:
|
|
|
| 1. With a measuring tape, measure
how many feet long the bed is. Then measure how many feet
wide. Multiply these two figures. The total is the square
foot area of that landscape bed. |
| 2. Decide how thick you want
your mulch to be. 2" is average. If you are just top
dressing a previously mulched bed, you may wish to use as little as
1" of mulch. Using the conversion chart on the back, you can
figure how many cubic yards of mulch to order. Or just call our
corporate office at (816) 941-4700. If you have the total area of
your landscape beds calculated, we can help you figure the amount of mulch
you will need. |
