Cubic Yards

An easy way to answer “How much is a cubic yard?” is to compare it to common items you’ve seen and used. The most popular example of this is equating cubic yards to pickup trucks. In this case, the typical full-size truck bed can hold between 2-3 cubic yards of material. That means a 10 cubic yard dumpster can hold at least three pickup truck loads. 20 cubic yard dumpster – Equivalent to about six pickup truck loads. 30 cubic yard dumpster – Roughly equivalent to nine pickup trucks of debris. 40 cubic yard dumpster – Can hold about 12 pickup trucks of materials.

• Cubic Yard (764.5549L)

  A cubic yard (symbol yd³) is an Imperial / U.S. customary (non-SI non-metric) unit of volume, used in the United States, Canada, and the UK. It is defined as the volume of a cube with sides of 1 yard (3 feet, 36 inches, 0.9144 meters) in length.

• Metric Cup (0.25L)

  The cup is a United States unit of volume, most commonly associated with cooking and serving sizes. It is traditionally equal to half a liquid pint in US customary units but is now separately defined in terms of the metric system at values between 1⁄5 and 1⁄4 of a liter. Because actual drinking cups may differ greatly from the size of this unit, standard measuring cups are usually used instead. Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and some other members of the Commonwealth of Nations—being former British colonies that have since metricated—employ a "metric cup" of 250 millilitres. Although derived from the metric system, it is not an SI unit.
