GOOD TO KNOW

How much fill does a raised bed need?

Calculate the interior dimensions, not the outside frame. Depth should reflect how much of the bed you actually plan to fill. Allow for settling if needed.

Example calculation

An 8 × 4 ft bed filled 12 inches deep needs 32 cubic feet before any extra allowance.

Tips for a better estimate

  • Measure the actual usable space, not just the outer boundary.
  • Double-check units and product packaging before ordering.
  • Round purchases up where appropriate to avoid running short.
