Measure your driveway
on a map.
Find your property, tap along the driveway or around the area, and get the length, square feet, tons and truckloads of rock. It’s a reference tool for a rough idea, not a quote.
The sides cross, which makes an hourglass. That gives the wrong area, so the estimate is paused. Fix the order of the corners, or drag a dot so the sides do not cross.
A reference tool, not a quote. Traced on aerial photos that may be a few years old or hidden by trees. We confirm on site.
Box size and angle
Set the size first and then tap the map to drop the box, or drop it and type the exact numbers. Corners are always square.
Exact lengths
Know a length for sure? Type it and the shape adjusts to match.
Loading aerial photos… the government imagery server can be slow, so give it a few seconds.
The aerial imagery is slow or unavailable right now. You can try again in a moment, or enter your measurements in the calculator.
Tap along the middle of your driveway to see tons, yards and truck loads.
How accurate is it?
Measurements come from aerial photos, so a traced line is usually good to within a few feet, which is plenty for ordering rock. Three things can throw it off:
- The photos are a few years old. They’re flown every couple of years, so a recent change, like a new driveway, won’t show.
- Trees can hide the driveway. Where it’s under tree cover, trace your best guess and double-check on the ground.
- Width is yours to supply. The map measures length; you enter how wide the rock will be. For a pad or paddock, trace the outline and the map measures the area directly.
We always confirm measurements on site before we quote. For the weights, depths and truck sizes behind the numbers, see the rock and gravel calculator. If you’re not sure which rock to pick, see our size guide.
Privacy
We don’t see or store what you trace. The aerial photos load straight from the U.S. Geological Survey, and address search uses OpenStreetMap, so those services receive the address you type and your device’s connection details. Nothing is sent to us unless you press Request a Quote.
Questions
Where do the aerial photos come from?
They’re public-domain images from the USGS National Agriculture Imagery Program, taken from aircraft every couple of years and about half a meter per pixel.
Can I measure a curved driveway?
Yes. Add a point at each bend. The more points on the curves, the closer the measurement.
What if my address won’t come up?
Search for the nearest town or road and then zoom and drag to your property. Rural addresses often aren’t in the free search.
Want it measured and delivered?
Send us the address and what it’s for. We’ll walk it, confirm the rock and the tons in writing.
