How many cubic feet are in a backhoe bucket?

The volume of a backhoe bucket is typically measured in cubic feet. A standard 24 inch backhoe bucket holds approximately 0.5 to 1.0 cubic feet of material, depending on the depth and design. Larger buckets can have a capacity of up to 1.5 cubic feet. Understanding the cubic feet capacity is crucial for calculating how much material can be moved per scoop, which directly impacts project efficiency.
