The weight of a 30-gallon drum can vary depending on the material it is made of. However, as a general estimate, a standard empty steel drum typically weighs around 30-35 pounds. When filled, the weight can increase significantly, with liquids such as water weighing approximately 8.34 pounds per gallon, resulting in a filled 30-gallon drum weighing around 250-260 pounds.

How much does 55 gallon drum of copper wire weigh?

Soil weighs about 2.5 times as much as water, which weighs about 8 pounds per gallon. However, one must estimate the porosity (void space) in the soil. Assuming 30% soil porosity means that one gallon of soil would weigh (0.7 x 2.5 x 8 pounds/gallon) about 14 pounds. Therefore, if full to the brim with soil (relatively dry), the drum would weigh about 770 pounds (that is, 55 gallons x 14 pounds/gallon). In reality, there is a range of possible weights, depending on soil density, moisture content, soil composition, etc.
