You would need to know the depth of material first that you are covering the square yards in to make it a cubic measurement.

The conversion is different depending on what substance you are using. You need to know the density of the material you are using.

For instance, and this is from Reade.com;

Earth, moist, excavated - 90 pounds/cubic foot

Earth, wet, excavated - 100 pounds/cubic foot

Multiply the volume in cubic feet by the above number, and you will get pounds.
