This converter turns cubic meters into gallons (m3 to gallons). Enter a value and the result updates as you type. The section "How Many Gallons in a Cubic Meter" below gives the factor and where it comes from.

Water use, tank capacity and liquid freight in metric countries are given in cubic meters, while US pumps, water bills and chemical doses are in gallons. This page uses the US liquid gallon; for UK imperial gallons the answer is about 17% smaller. Outside the US the starting unit is spelled cubic metres.

The result is rounded to 4 decimal places, but the factor behind it never is, so long chains of conversions stay accurate. Type a whole number or a decimal; the conversion table below lists common values.
