Stop Guessing. Start Measuring.
Measure Flows was built to solve one specific problem: The "Extra Trip" to the hardware store. We provide professional-grade landscape estimation tools to help you buy exactly what you need—no more, no less.
Our Expertise
Why Trust Our Calculators?
We don't just use generic formulas. Our algorithms are tuned to specific material densities used in the US landscape industry.
Density Precision
Rubber mulch weighs significantly less than wood mulch. Our calculator adjusts the "Tons vs. Yards" conversion factor based on the specific material selected.
Cost Transparency
We believe in calculating the "True Cost of Ownership." Our comparisons factor in annual top-up costs for wood mulch vs. the one-time cost of rubber.
Unbiased Advice
While we may earn a commission if you buy through our links, our calculator math is objective. Physics doesn't have a bias, and neither do we.
Our Story
Measure Flows started when we realized that most "free calculators" online were clunky, covered in spammy popups, or simply inaccurate. They often treated gravel the same as mulch, leading to massive over-ordering of heavy materials.
We set out to build a cleaner, faster, and more specific tool. By focusing on modern web technology (Laravel & Livewire), we created a calculator that updates instantly without reloading the page—essential when you are standing in the garden with spotty cell service trying to figure out how many bags to buy.
