FAQ

How many 80 lb bags of concrete in a yard?

45. A yard is 27 cubic feet. QUIKRETE Concrete Mix and Sakrete High-Strength both yield 0.60 cubic feet from an 80 lb bag. 27 ÷ 0.60 = 45 exactly. That count has no waste.

How many 60 lb bags in a yard?

60, if the bag yields 0.45 cubic feet. That is QUIKRETE 1101 and Sakrete High-Strength. Sakrete 5000 Plus yields 0.47 from the 60 lb bag, which is 58 bags for a yard.

How many bags on a pallet?

The pallet tag says. This page does not print a pallet count, because the published data sheets used here give yield per bag, not bags per pallet.
