how many lbs in a cubic yard?
Answers:
if it is water it would weigh
1685.55 pounds
since soils vary it would be harder to give you an exact weight
Other answers:
It depends on what material you are talking about. A cubic yard of sand will be different than a cubic yard of mulch, which will be different than a cubic yard of stone dust. Yards is volume, lbs (pounds) is weight, which depends on the density of the material. Think feathers and bowling balls!
