    And how big are the bags. I've seen them come in two different sizes.

    Do the math, L X W X H and find out how many cubic feet you need rounding up. Better to throw some out than come up short.

    Here is a concrete calculator:

    Enter your information and it will calculate total bags needed. Add 1 additional bag to the total suggested for waste and to be absolutely sure you don't end up short on your pour as Smoothy alluded, too.
