Bagged Concrete & Mortar Mixes: choosing well

Check the yield

Each bag states the volume it makes. Divide your volume by the yield to get the number of bags.

Bagged or site-mixed?

Bagged mixes cost more per cubic metre but save time, waste and space. For anything bigger than a small pad, site-mixed or ready-mixed concrete is usually better value.
