How can I determine how much dirt I need to landscape my backyard?
unvryan asked:
The ground is almost solid rock, so I need to put some type of sandy loam or top soil on it. I want to order this but I do not know how to figure how much I would need to buy.

who ever you order from tell them what, in cubic meters you are requiring to landscape get that tape measure out!
I would also suggest going to a local garden center and looking at the different ammendments and soil mixes they sell there. I agree with the tape measurement of the yard. The bags tell you how much to buy and what they cover. I would also get the soil wet to see how dense it really is. You might even take a sample with you to the store.
