Common questions
What others asks before signing up?
How much mulch do I need for my garden?
Measure your bed area (length × width) and multiply by the desired depth. For most garden beds, 75 mm is recommended. This calculator does the maths for you and shows the result in cubic metres plus bag equivalents so you know exactly what to order.
How deep should mulch be?
50 mm is a light top-up, 75 mm is standard for weed suppression and moisture retention, and 100 mm suits new beds or heavy-traffic areas. This calculator lets you choose a preset or enter a custom depth in millimetres.
Is buying bulk mulch cheaper than bags?
Almost always. A 50 L bag of mulch costs $8–$15 at retail, while bulk mulch runs $40–$70 per cubic metre — roughly $2–$3 per bag equivalent. This estimate shows both bulk cost and bag equivalents so homeowners can compare.
How accurate is this mulch and soil calculator?
The calculator uses average Australian bulk supply rates and standard geometry to estimate volume and cost. Your landscape supplier will confirm actual quantities and pricing based on the specific product and delivery requirements.
Can I add this calculator to my WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix or Shopify site?
Yes. Leadkit gives you a single embed code that works on any website builder. Paste it into a page or post and the calculator appears with your branding, rates and lead capture.
What do I get when someone fills out the calculator?
You receive an instant email notification with the customer's name, contact details, material choice, volume needed and delivery preference — everything you need to follow up with a confirmed order.
What if I don't have a website?
Leadkit auto-generates a hosted calculator page with your branding, rates and contact details. Share the link on social media, Google Business Profile or in messages — no website needed.
Is Leadkit really free?
Yes. Free lets you add up to 3 calculators to your website and receive 10 leads per month — no credit card. Every lead beyond the cap is still captured and held for you; upgrading to Pro ($29/mo) opens them all retroactively and removes the cap.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You get an embed code (one line of HTML). Paste it into your website builder — Wix, Squarespace, WordPress, or any custom site. That's it.
How accurate are the price estimates?
You configure the calculator formulas to match your actual pricing. Leadkit provides the framework; you set the numbers. Estimates can be as detailed or as rough as you like.
What happens with lead data?
All lead data is stored securely in your workspace. You own it. We never sell or share your leads with anyone.
Can I use Leadkit as an agency for multiple clients?
Yes — our Agency plan lets you create and manage separate workspaces for each of your clients, all from one dashboard.
What's the difference between the plans?
Free: up to 3 calculators, 10 leads/month (over-cap leads held + locked until upgrade). Pro: unlimited leads, unlimited calculators, white-label, branded email sending, analytics, email templates. Agency: everything in Pro plus multi-workspace management.

How it works
How this mulch and soil calculator is calculated
This calculator produces a quantity estimate, not a binding quote. Final quantities and pricing should be confirmed with your supplier.
GST handling: Supply cost estimates exclude GST. Your supplier will confirm pricing including any applicable GST.
1
Calculate area
For rectangles: length × width. For circles: π × radius². For multiple beds: uses the total area you enter.
area = length × width (or π × r²)
2
Calculate volume
Multiplies the area by your chosen spread depth to determine cubic metres of material needed.
volume = area × depth
3
Estimate supply cost
Multiplies the volume by the per-m³ rate for your chosen material. Rates are based on average Australian bulk supply pricing.
cost = volume × material rate
4
Add delivery
If delivery is selected, adds the applicable delivery fee based on distance from the supply yard.
5
Show bag equivalents
Converts the total volume to the equivalent number of 40 L and 60 L bags for easy comparison with retail pricing.
Sydney and Melbourne supply yards typically charge 10–20% above these averages. Regional and rural areas may see lower material costs but higher delivery fees.
