 Topsoils, Topdressings and Aggregates  950 kg per bulk bag                                 
 Compost and Bark Mulch  1m³ per bulk bag

 

Any mix specially designed has its own bulk density ratio. To work out roughly what a mix would be, use the example below:

16m³ 50/50 TS1 / Compost mix breaks down to:

8m³ TS1 (at 1.4 tonne per m³) is 11.2 tonne

8m³ Compost (at 500kg per m³) is 4 tonne

Meaning 16m³ 50/50 TS1 / Compost mix is approximately 15.2 tonne
