How to Calculate Crushed Asphalt Millings
Calculating the amount of crushed asphalt millings you need begins by measuring the length and width of your project area in feet, then determining the desired installation depth. Asphalt millings are commonly used to resurface driveways and roads, with the recommended depth varying depending on traffic and the condition of the existing surface. If your depth is measured in inches, convert it to feet before calculating the volume.
The basic formula is:
Length × Width × Depth ÷ 27 = Cubic Yards
One cubic yard contains 27 cubic feet, making it the standard unit used to purchase bulk asphalt millings and other landscape materials.
Our Crushed Asphalt Millings Calculator performs these calculations automatically, helping you estimate the amount of material needed without doing the math yourself.

Common Crushed Asphalt Millings Coverage Examples
The amount of area one cubic yard of crushed asphalt millings covers depends on how deep the material is installed.
| Asphalt Millings Depth | Approximate Coverage per Cubic Yard |
|---|---|
| 1 inch | 324 sq ft |
| 2 inches | 162 sq ft |
| 3 inches | 108 sq ft |
| 4 inches | 81 sq ft |
| 6 inches | 54 sq ft |
These examples are intended as general guidelines. Actual material requirements may vary depending on compaction, grading, settling, and site conditions.
Common Uses for Crushed Asphalt Millings
Crushed asphalt millings are made from recycled asphalt pavement that has been processed into a reusable aggregate. They provide a durable, cost-effective surface that compacts well and is commonly used as an alternative to traditional gravel or new asphalt.
Common uses for crushed asphalt millings include:
Common uses for crushed asphalt millings include:
- Residential driveways
- Private roads
- Parking areas
- Farm roads
- Equipment yards
- Walking paths and trails
- Shoulder repairs
- General site improvements
When properly installed and compacted, asphalt millings create a firm surface that can withstand regular vehicle traffic while helping reduce dust and maintenance compared to loose aggregate.
Tips for Ordering Crushed Asphalt Millings
Before ordering Crushed Asphalt Millings, consider these best practices:
- Measure the finished length, width, and desired depth of your project before estimating material quantities.
- Prepare a stable base by removing soft spots and grading the area for proper drainage.
- Install asphalt millings at the recommended depth based on expected vehicle traffic.
- Compact the material in lifts using a roller or plate compactor to create a durable, long-lasting surface.
- Order slightly more material than calculated to account for compaction, grading, and minor variations.
- Allow the compacted surface to settle and bond before exposing it to heavy traffic when possible.
Proper site preparation, compaction, and accurate measurements help maximize the performance and lifespan of your asphalt millings while reducing waste and the need for additional material.
