How much soil will I need?
Calculating the quantity of soil you will require to fill your beds is relatively simple; you just need to multiply the length of your bed by the width and the depth in metres, multiply by 1000 and the figure you arrive at is the amount of compost you'll need in litres. All the Rolawn soil we supply is delivered in 730 litre tote bags so you can tell immediately how many bags you'll need to order. There is a calculator on the Rolawn Soil page or the example below should help you with this;
2.4m long x 1.2m wide x 20cm deep = (2.4 x 1.2 x 0.2) x 1000 = 576 litres - 1 x 730 litre tote bag required
For the best growing results, we'd advise you to fill your beds with 75% topsoil and use a bulky organic matter - such as farmyard manure or home-made compost - to make up the other 25%. For more details on filling your raised bed, please contact our Customer Services Team.
Product Reviews
The raised beds are fantastic and the service we got was fantastic.
I had been looking for a raised bed to go with our new corten steel lawn edging, but they were all strange sizes and very expensive. Harrod offers a good range of sizes with various widths and modular sections to increase the height. I wanted a bottomless planter (to enable plants to grow in it over tree roots, but allow free drainage). Other than the fact that some of the nuts and bolts were a bit fiddly, it was easy to assemble and looks great. It took 550 litres of (ericaceous) soil, so I hope/expect that the plants will thrive.
