About

Construction and landscaping quotes usually speak in cubic yards of material delivered, while scales and invoices may use US short tons (2,000 pounds). There is no single universal factor: crushed stone, sand, topsoil, and asphalt all pack to different bulk densities.

This calculator applies a simple formula: weight (tons) = volume (yd³) × tons per yd³, and the inverse for tons-to-yards. Presets are mid-range estimates for quick orders; for bidding or compliance, use your supplier’s spec sheet or a certified scale.

“Yards” in this context means cubic yards—a volume—not linear yards along a tape measure. If you only know length × width × depth in feet, divide cubic feet by 27 to get cubic yards first.

All math runs in your browser; we do not store your quantities.

FAQ

This tool uses cubic yards (volume). Square yards are area only; you need a depth or thickness to reach a volume before converting to weight.

We use the US short ton (2,000 lb). A metric tonne is 1,000 kg (~2,204.6 lb). If your quote is in tonnes, convert to the same unit system before using density factors.

Moisture, grain size, how tightly it is compacted, and rock type all change bulk density. Use custom density when you have a lab value or truck ticket.

Multiply length × width × depth in feet to get cubic feet, then divide by 27 (because 1 yd³ = 27 ft³).

No. It is a quick estimator for planning. Structural loads, haul permits, and pay quantities should follow your jurisdiction and project specifications.

Not directly here—inputs are cubic yards and US short tons. Convert m³ to yd³ first (1 m³ ≈ 1.30795 yd³) or adjust your density to tonnes per m³ in a spreadsheet.

No. Calculations run entirely in your browser tab.
