How much does one cubic yard of mulch weigh?

Answer 1

around 1 thousand pounds.

But this will depend on the mulch itself. After a heavy rain mulch can weigh in at about 1000 lbs per yard however in better conditions, the range of 600-800 lbs is a fairly accepted value in the landscape industry.

Answer 2

That depends on the content of the garbage. Some garbage consists of lighter weight materials, such as plastics and paper, etc, while some consists of heavier weight materials, such as aluminum and glass, etc. So in order to calculate the weight of one cubic yard of garbage, the content of the garbage would have to be known.

Answer 3

Depends on the composition of that garbage! A cubic yard of newspaper would weigh less tthan a cubic yard of iron , etc. etc.

Answer 4

That would of course depend on what is in it. Household garbage can vary greatly in its contents.

Answer 5

It depends how big your yard is.
