No—topsoil is generally lighter per cubic yard than most gravel or crushed stone. Gravel is much denser and will weigh more for the same volume, so compare by weight if a supplier quotes by the ton. Always check the supplier's weight-per-yard for accurate comparisons.

Regional variation means color and texture will reflect local geology.

Use the formula: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324. For 1,000 sq ft: 1 inch depth = about 3.1 yd3, 2 inches = about 6.2 yd3, and 3 inches = about 9.3 yd3. We recommend ordering about 10% extra to allow for settling and small measurement errors, so round up to the nearest half or whole yard.

Suppliers in our network price topsoil both ways: many consumer transactions are by the cubic yard, while contractors sometimes buy by the ton. Which is more cost-effective depends on the supplier's quoted weight-per-yard and moisture content; always ask the supplier for the pounds (or tons) per cubic yard to compare apples to apples. For most homeowners, cubic yards are the easiest unit for ordering.

Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons, which many customers use as a baseline for small topsoil deliveries.
