30 gallons of volume = 4.01 cubic feet (rounded) = 0.1485cubic yard of volume (rounded)No matter what's in it.Even if it's empty.
1 acre = 43,560 square feet At 1/2-ft deep, that's (43,560 x 1/2) = 21,780 cubic feet 27 cubic feet = 1 cubic yard 21,780 cubic feet = 806 2/3 cubic yards
24 cubic feet for every foot high that you pile it.
1 acre = 43,560 square feet.1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feetA slab of soil 1-ft deep covering 1 acre has a volume of 43,560 cubic feet= 43,560 / 27 = [ 1,613 and 1/3 ] cubic yards
soil weighs 1600 kg/ cubic meter
a cubic meter of soil will weight 550-900 kg depending on its composition

The soil density must be given to convert from a mass measure to a volume measure.Assuming a clay soil of density 1200 kg/cubic meter, then the volume is 1000/1200 cubic meter or 0.833 cubic meterAssuming a sandy soil of density 1500 kg/cubic meter, then the volume is 1000/15000 cubic meter or 0.667cubic meter
Given a 6 cubic foot wheelbarrow, and that there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard, you would need 4.5 wheelbarrows to make a cubic yard. The wheelbarrow may have the capacity stamped on it. David
2000 kgs compacted but 1250 kgs loose second opinion in my experience soil wieghts 600-900 kg per cubic meter, i never heard of a two ton per cube soil

You cannot use a measure of area to calculate its weight.You need a third dimension to first calculate the volume and then convert to weight by knowing the density of the soil.If you have a depth of one meter there is one cubic meter and soil has a density of about 1,3 so your cubic meter of soil weighs 1,3 tonnes.
Density of loose soil is about 1200 kg/m3 1 cubic meter of soil may weigh more than this if compacted or moist.
The volume of the one cubic meter soil equals 1x1x0.3 to give us 0.3 cubic metres.
The volume = 6 x 2 x 1 = 12 cubic meters Actually there is no dirt in a hole.
That depends on how thin you spread it. If it's a meter thick, it only covers one square meter. If it's a centimeter thick, it covers a hundred square meters.
