I was able to find the bucket capacity on Bobcat's website, but I'm looking for the "heaped capacity", which they didn't list.
I'm selling mulch this year, and I'm trying to keep my inventory close...does anyone know what the approximate heaped capacity is of the bucket with mulch in it? Obvioulsy, it would be more than sand, stone, etc. Thanks.

Virnig lists their 67.5 low pro as 13.1 struck and 15.7 heaped, they have several bucket types, if you find one that matches yours struck, then the heaped capacity would be vary close.

Ken, Thanks for the reply. I think I am going to buy one of Bobcat's snow/bulk material buckets. I'm sure they aren't too expensive and one size bucket holds 26.8 cubic feet, just .2 under a yard. That will allow me to keep my inventory much tighter than trying to estimate two odd size bucket loads.
