Enter a value for all fields
The Cost of Play Sand calculator computes the price of a volume (V) of play sand.
INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:
- (V) Volume of play sand (e.g. 4 cubic feet)
- (uP) Unit price of a cubic foot of play sand (see Unit Pricing below). This is typically the price of two bags of play sand.
Total Cost of Play Sand (TC): The calculator returns the total cost in U.S. dollars. However, this can be automatically converted to other currency units via the pull-down menu.
Unit Pricing
One should always use local pricing when available. Typically a bag of play sand is 1/2 a cubic foot, so twice the price will give you the local unit price for a cubic foot of play sand. However, for convenience, vCalc performs a periodic survey of commodities such as play sand. The most recent play sand survey was as follows:
- Store: Lowes
- Date: 10/12/21
- Unit Price per Cubic Foot: $8.66 USD/ft³
