About ShovelCalc

ShovelCalc makes simple, accurate calculators for landscaping and building materials, so you can order the right amount the first time.

Ordering too little means a second delivery fee; ordering too much means a pile of leftover gravel on the driveway. Our calculators handle irregular areas, metric and imperial units, realistic material weights and a bulk-vs-bags cost comparison.

We explain the formula on every page so you can check the math yourself. If you spot an error or want a calculator we don't have yet, let us know.
