1 ton, but I don't know whether that's a short ton or a long ton.
A cubic ton is a measurement of volume (i.e. how much space it takes up). A cubic ton of sand is how much space a ton of sand takes up. A cubic ton of timber is how much space a ton of timber takes up, and as timber is lighter than sand, a cubic ton of timber is larger than a cubic ton of sand, even though they both weigh the same.
As for the volume of a cubic ton of sand, I have no idea.
You could get a rough answer this way:
"m" divided by "d"
where m =one ton in whatever units you are using (e.g. kg)
and d = density of sand (in the same units)

Around 750 g
The weight capacity of a typical wheelbarrow is around 100-200 kg, depending on its size and construction. A tonne of sand is equivalent to 1000 kg. Therefore, it would take approximately 5-10 wheelbarrows to carry a tonne of sand, assuming each wheelbarrow is filled to its maximum capacity.
"1 cubic meter" is a perfectly good 'quantity'. If the 'quantity' you want is the weight instead, then you need to know a unit weight or density for sand, in order to convert a volume to a weight.
The easiest way to measure sand in a truck is by weight. A cubic yard of sand weighs approximately 4000 pounds.
