How To Calculate Cubic Yards?

Measure the length, width, and height of the space in feet

Multiply length × width × height to get cubic feet

Divide the cubic feet by 27 to convert to cubic yards

Use the formula: cubic yards = (length × width × height) ÷ 27

For irregular shapes, break the area into smaller rectangular sections and calculate each one separately

Add the cubic yards from each section together

Make sure all measurements use the same unit before converting

Round the final result as needed for your project
