You would need to know the depth of material first that you are covering the square yards in to make it a cubic measurement.
The conversion is different depending on what substance you are using. You need to know the density of the material you are using.
For instance, and this is from Reade.com;
Earth, moist, excavated - 90 pounds/cubic foot
Earth, wet, excavated - 100 pounds/cubic foot
Multiply the volume in cubic feet by the above number, and you will get pounds.

How do you convert tons of rock to square yards?
This depends on how much rock you will use per square yard. Suppose you intend to use 1/100 tons (=20 lb) per square yard. Then if you have one ton of rock, it will cover 100 square yards. Similarly, if you intended to use 1/50 tons per square yard, 1 ton will cover 50 square yards. In general you want to use factor labeling: If you are using x tons per square yard, then write this as (1 square yard) / (x tons of rock) = (1/x)*(square yards/tons of rock) This is called a conversion factor. Now, if you have some quantity of rock, say y tons of rock, and you want to see how many square yards it would cover you just multiply (y tons of rock)*(1/x)*(square yards/tons of rock) = y/x (square yards*tons of rock/tons of rock) = y/x square yards since the labels just divide out.
