You just need to pack the base level. Use 3 x4's rough sawn treated timber every two or three feet and pack them level with brick, tiles, slates or concrete blobs.

Width * length * depth = volume. If you are approaching 1 cubic meter I suggest you look in yellow pages for these guys that mix and barrow for you.

I had 12 cubes (two lorries full) delivered yesterday, it was so so much cheeper than mixing it by hand, so so much a better job.
