A cubic yard of fill dirt weighs approximately 2500 lbs = about 1.25 tons.
A cubic yard of topsoil weighs approximately 2200 lbs = about 1.15 tons.
A cubic yard of blend weighs approximately 1800 lbs = about 0.9 ton.
Just like we need to eat to maintain our health, soil needs continual replenishment of its organic matter to decompose into humus. Humus helps create a rich, moisture-retaining soil and makes nutrients available to plants.
All Acme materials are measured and sold by volume. A ton to cubic yard equivalent price is shown for your comparison. Weights will vary slightly according to moisture content. Bulk material prices picked up at our yard include one time loading. Some screened materials contain fines. Tones and sizing may vary over time. All prices “plus 9.1% sales tax.”
