The estimation of 1 cubic foot weighing 40 pounds is based on bags of topsoil. Some bags state a weight of 40 pounds, and some state a volume of 1 cubic foot. The dimensions of the contents are similar. Other factors determining weight are moisture content and volume of sticks, rocks and other debris.
How Much Does A Cubic Yard Of Dirt Weigh? The average cubic yard of dry fill dirt will typically weigh as much as 2,000 pounds. If it is made up of a mixture of sand, stone and gravel, the weight can easily exceed 3,000 pounds per cubic yard. Depending on the composition and moisture content of the dirt, a cubic yard can weigh from 2,000 â 2,700 pounds. If the dirt is mostly made up of topsoil and organic material, a cubic yard of it will weigh as much as 1,080 pounds. If the dirt is made up mostly of sand, it can weigh as much as 2,600 â 3,000 pounds.
