Listen "Don't Overload: Calculating Material Weight and Volume"
Episode Synopsis
Ever wondered how much a pile of soil, sand, or gravel weighs when you're planning a landscaping project? In this episode, we're breaking down the crucial difference between volume and weight for common landscaping materials. Using a specific example of a 2.337 m3 area, we reveal how the same cubic volume can range from less than a tonne to over 5 tonnes depending on the material's density and compaction. We'll provide a detailed guide on the weight of various materials—from lightweight mulches to heavy road bases—and share essential tips for safe and legal transportation. Tune in to learn how to calculate material weights and ensure you're not overloading your vehicles or machinery.
