Best Answer

Many people will consider this question to be tongue-in-cheek since the yard is a unit of length and the pound is a unit of weight; therefore one cannot be converted to the other.

But certain things such as concrete and topsoil are sold by the "yard" (an abbreviated term meaning "cubic yard"), so I am guessing that the asker of this question is buying such an item and wants to know if the rear springs in his/her Toyota Tercel/Ford Focus are going to collapse if they forgo the delivery fee.

Soooooo....concrete weighs approximately 150 lbs per cubic foot and since there are 9 cubic feet in a cubic yard, you will be lugging 1350 lbs in your trunk. And speaking of trunks, that is the weight of about 7 baby elephants (or four aunt Petunias). So pay the delivery fee.

The jury is still out on topsoil but it can weigh between 150 and 350 lbs per cubic yard depending on its composition, so you might risk that one in your hatchback.
