(article from LSU)
If you use mulch around your house be very careful about buying mulch this year. After the Hurricane in New Orleans many trees were blown over. These trees were then turned into mulch and the state is trying to get rid of tons and tons of this mulch to any state or company who will come and haul it away. So it will be showing up in Home Depot and Lowes at dirt cheap prices with one huge problem; Formosan Termites will! be the bonus in many of those bags. New Orleans is one of the few areas in the country were the Formosan Termites has gotten a strong hold and most of the trees blown down were already badly infested with those termites. Now we may have the worst case of transporting a problem to all parts of the country that we have ever had. These termites can eat a house in no time at all and we have no good control against them, so tell your friends that own homes to avoid cheap mulch and know were it came from.

Dump truck bodies are measured by the cubic yard.
One yard is one cubic yard, a measure 3' x 3' x 3', or 27 cubic feet.
To estimate your project, measure the length x width x depth, using the same units of measure for each.
Use foot units for easy calculations.
Example: Say you have an area that is 12' x 18 '. You want to cover it with 6" of material.
Multiply, 12' x 18' x .5' to get 108 cubic feet. You see, 6" is .5 feet or 1/2 a foot.
Now, devide 108 cubic feet by 27 cubic feet(1 yard) to get your total yardage at 4 yards.
If you want a 3" cover you use 1/4' or .25'. A four inch cover is 1/3 foot or .33', etc.
