A yard is 27 cu ft. If you have a 6 cu ft wheelbarrow, that would be 5.

Another way to think of it is 500 pounds per trip.

If the dirt has lots of stones in it do you need as many loads?

A 4 wheel cart with a dump body is easier.

No, as long as they are stones for lots. Did you mean stones for lots, lots of stones or lots of stones for lots?

Sow in a wheelbarrow

This farmer has a sow he would like to get pregnant but he doesnt have a bore(male pig).His neighbor tells him he has a bore bring your sow over and he'll get her pregnant.

The farmer says sure but how will I know if she's pregnant.Neighbor says watch her in the morning if she rolls in the clover she's pregnant,if she rolls in the mud she's not.So the farmer loads the sow in his wheelbarrow and takes her to the neighbors and leavs her with the bore everyday for a week.Every morning she's rolling in the mud,so he's gotta put her in the wheelbarrow and take her to the neighbors again.

He's getting tired of this'next morning he says to his wife "Honey look out the window and tell me if the pigs rolling in the mud or the clover"His wife has a look and comes back say's"She aint rolling in the mud or the clover,she's sittin in the wheelbarrow. ___________

That depends. How big of a yard do you want? Just keep adding more dirt until the yard is the size you need.... Sue Minocqua, WI Yamaha '00 VStar 650 '04 TW200 (mud = fun) Kawasaki '95 Vulcan 1500 V#15937

A cubic yard contains 27 cubic feet.

A large contractor type wheelbarrow holds 6 cubic feet.

When you dig up soil, there is a fluff factor - there is more soil volume because it is not densely packed.

Hope this helps, maybe better than some of the other answers.
