In the United States, when people say a ton, they're most often thinking of the short ton, or 2000 pounds. In the UK, a ton is equal to 2,240 pounds. Depends which ton you want:
In the United States and formerly Canada a ton is defined to be 2,000 pounds (907 kg). Where confusion is possible, the 2240 lb ton is called  long ton  and the 2000 lb ton  short ton ; the tonne is distinguished by its spelling, but usually pronounced the same as ton, hence the US term metric ton.
