Team,

So I am trying to do the math so I can order some sand in bulk to level out my lawn! Not sure how to go about this, but the surface area I am trying to level is broken down as follows:

Estimate:
~1700⏍ (Right side of driveway)
~700⏍ (Left side of driveway)
~2400⏍ (Total lawn surface area)

*I presume I will utilize the rough numbers as opposed to the exact numbers in order to easily calculate how many yards of sand I need.

Exact measurements:
1,613⏍(Right side of driveway)
628 ⏍ (Left side of driveway)
2,381⏍ (Total lawn surface area)

So what do you guys think I am estimating 2 to 2 1/2 yards of sand? Any thoughts?

Rule of thumb is one yard for each 1000 sq.ft.

And it always seems that when people post pictures of their leveling projects, they say "I should have gotten a little more." I'd say get 20% more than what you calculate, especially since you're planning on <5 yards.
