How Much Playsafer Rubber Playground Mulch Do You Need?
Measure the length and width of the play area and choose the depth based on the required fall-height protection. For example, a 25 ft. × 30 ft. area contains 750 sq. ft.; the amount of mulch needed changes significantly between a 3 in. residential installation and a deeper commercial installation.
If you are unsure how much to order, contact Extreme Kids World before placing the order and we can help you review the area size and depth you are planning.
