And here I just had a landscaper try to tell me he brought 4 yards of dirt in a 8’ bed pickup bed.

Were you spreading this on your lawn? What’s your square footage? I’m thinking about getting 5 yards of topsoil delivered as well. Thanks

Trini2DB868 Yes, that was for my home, but I was regrading a big area, so it’s hard to estimate the sq ft when some was laid 18” deep. Here is a great calculator to estimate how much soil you need: www.inchcalculator.com/soil-calculator/

How much was the weight for the 4yrds? Please

It was top soil, not sandy, so probably about 1 ton x 4 = 4 tons. (8,000 lbs.)

Stupid question… What’s the tarp do? Is it necessary?

I put it down so the driver knows exactly where I want it. It makes cleaning the driveway after much easier. I can save one shovel-into-the-wheelbarrow trip by dragging the tarp over to where I'm spreading dirt then shake it clean. How's that! 🙂

So, a pick up truck can basically hold 1 yard then, thanks. This answered my question.

Maybe! I have a midsize with a weight limit of 1,500 lbs. One yard of dirt weighs 2,200.

In theory, but for the average pickup bed it will weigh too much.
