3000 sq ft: mulch by depth
| Depth | Cu ft | Cu yd | 2 cu ft bags |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1″ | 250.0 | 9.26 | 125 |
| 2″ | 500.0 | 18.52 | 250 |
| 3″ | 750.0 | 27.78 | 375 |
| 4″ | 1,000.0 | 37.04 | 500 |
Worked example
3000 sq ft × 3 in ÷ 12 = 750.0 cu ft = 27.78 cubic yards. In 2 cu ft bags that is 375 bags; in 3 cu ft bags, 250. Bulk delivery by the yard is usually cheaper at this volume; compare local prices.
