A bundle of shingles typically contains between 15 and 29 individual shingles, depending on the type of shingle. Here is a general breakdown:
- Standard or 3-tab shingles usually have about 26 to 29 shingles per bundle.
- Architectural shingles typically contain about 20 to 22 shingles per bundle.
- Luxury shingles vary more widely, with about 10 to 16 shingles per bundle depending on size and thickness
Each bundle generally covers about 33 square feet of roof area regardless of shingle type, and it usually takes about three bundles to cover one roofing square (100 square feet)
. In summary:
Shingle Type| Shingles per Bundle| Coverage per Bundle (sq ft)
---|---|---
Standard / 3-tab| 26–29| ~33
Architectural| 20–22| ~33
Luxury| 10–16 (varies)| ~33
This packaging helps keep bundles manageable in weight and size for handling during roofing projects
