5' x 10' x 2' = 100 cubic feet

divided by 27 (27 cubic feet in a cubic yard) = 3.7 "Yards" (cubic yards)

Filled completely and level with the top, the trailer will hold 3.7 yards.

Now,, assuming that soil weighs approx 2500 lbs per cubic yard, this comes to 9250 Total lbs, which is FAR more than a typical 5' x 10' single axle trailer can handle as far as weight. (A trailer this size usually maxes out at about 2000 lb load)
