First, in landscaping terms there is NO 'dirt' - but there are many kinds of soil and sands. You should visit a landscaping yard or quarry to view these. - There have many different prices depending on the use.
You need to check locally. Most of the cost will be delivery.
The cost of one yard of dirt can vary widely depending on factors such as location, type of dirt, and supplier. On average, prices range from $15 to $50 per yard for standard fill dirt, while specialized types like topsoil or compost can cost $30 to $100 or more per yard. It's best to check with local suppliers for the most accurate pricing in your area.
Normally fill dirt is measured in cu-yds, not sq-yds. It's simple math to convert from the area that you want to cover and the depth desired to how many cu-yds it is going to take to get it to that depth.
One cubic yard of dirt can fill a hole that measures 3 feet long, 3 feet wide, and 3 feet deep, since a cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet. Therefore, the maximum size of the hole that can be filled with one yard of dirt is a cube with those dimensions. Alternatively, it could fill any other shape or dimension that also equals 27 cubic feet in volume.
Be careful usually it takes a yard just to fill the hose on the pumper truck
My suggestion is not to buy fill dirt but to go to a local construction site and pick some up there. Waste dirt is usually left over from leveling the land to build. A foreman/site manager might just let you have all the dirt you would like.
11 cubic yards of planting mix converted to how many tons?
None because it's a hole but 6 cubic yards of dirt will fill it up.
To effectively fill in low spots in your yard with dirt, you can follow these steps: Begin by removing any debris or rocks from the low spots. Add a layer of topsoil to the low areas, ensuring it is evenly distributed. Use a rake to spread the soil evenly and level it with the surrounding area. Compact the soil gently with a tamper or the back of a shovel to prevent settling. Water the filled-in areas thoroughly to help the soil settle and promote grass growth. By following these steps, you can effectively fill in low spots in your yard with dirt and improve the overall appearance of your lawn.
There are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard. So, if you have 1 cubic yard of dirt, it is equivalent to 27 cubic feet of dirt.
The same as it'll be in any other type of dump. There's no way to actually give a precise answer without knowing what the commodity is... a yard of mulch, a yard of fill dirt, and a yard of asphalt millings aren't going to weigh the same. A general rule of thumb is one ton per yard of fill dirt or hard ag product, but that's a guesstimation at best... really depends on exactly what the product is, and also how lossely it's packed... dry, loose sand and most, packed fill dirt will likewise give you two very different weights.
You are mixing volume (square yard) and area (length x width). How deep do you want the dirt? One foot deep you need about 80 square yards of dirt.
