Footage Calculator
This calculator has been created to help you estimate footages for orders you
may be writing or have written. This is very handy and we use it all the time
here at the nursery. We've included the reference table to show you the unit
estimates used in the calculator. The footage is based on 189 units per foot
and the trucks are usually 48 feet.
REMEMBER THIS IS AN ESTIMATOR ONLY. ACTUAL FOOTAGE
MAY VARY A LITTLE ONE WAY OR THE OTHER, AND WE SUGGEST IF YOU'RE USING THIS WITH
YOUR CUSTOMER YOU MAKE IT VERY CLEAR THIS IS A CLOSE ESTIMATE ONLY.
The shipping units reference table is a tool to give you insight into how we calculate footage for trucks. Actual order computations are taken from each size in the order, not an average.
