A cubic yard (yd3) is an imperial and US customary unit of volume.
It's most often used to measure large quantities of bulk materials for landscaping and construction projects. The plural form is cubic yards.
A cubic yard is a measure of volume representing the space inside a cube that is one yard long on each side.
Since one yard equals three feet, you can visualize a cubic yard as a box measuring 3 feet high, 3 feet wide, and 3 feet long.
This means that one cubic yard is equivalent to 27 cubic feet (3 ft × 3 ft × 3 ft = 27 ft3).
This makes the cubic yard a key unit of measurement for projects involving large volumes of material.
In the United States, the cubic yard is the standard unit of measurement for many bulk materials, especially in construction, landscaping, and waste management.
When you order materials like concrete, mulch, topsoil, gravel, or sand, the quantity is typically priced and sold by the cubic yard.
For instance, a standard concrete mixer truck usually holds between 8 and 11 cubic yards of concrete.
