It depends on the density of the sand. Certainly, you are talking about 56 cubic feet, but you will need to know the bulk density of sand to figure out how much that weighs.
Go to a park that has sand and maybe you will see a kid in a sandbox!!

There are several ways you can store a sand box. You can either drain the sand box of the sand and store the sand in air tight containers or you can simply apply a weatherproof tarp around the sandbox during winter and rainy seasons.

Where is the sand box
It will take 72 sq. ft. of sand. Or 2.66 sq. yds. That will fill the box even.
Call around to your local lumber yards and garden supply centers to get a price on a ton of sand. In my area of Pennsylvania it was going for around $30 a ton plus delivery. This was to fill a large 5' x 5' sandbox we made under a treehouse. If you are going with a much smaller sand box you might just want to buy a few bags of sandbox sand which I have seen for $2 to $4 each depending on the size. Jim
