Why This Conversion Matters
Landscaping materials are sold by the cubic yard, but many measurements are taken in cubic feet. Knowing that 27 cubic feet equals one cubic yard lets you quickly convert measurements from your tape measure into the ordering units your supplier uses. This is especially common when calculating material for raised beds, planters, and small fill projects where you measure in feet and inches but order in yards.
