How many yards of sand do you need to fill a sand box 8 ft long by 8 ft wide by 12 inches deep?

8ft Wide by 8ft Long by 1ft Deep is 64sq/ft. A yard of sand is 36sq/ft. You will need a little less than 2sq/yards (72sq/ft). -------------------------------------------------------- We're talking about volume, not area, so 8x8x1 = 64 cubic feet, not sq. ft. A "yard" of sand actually means a cubic yard and is 3ft x 3ft x 3ft = 27 cubic feet, not 36 sq/ft. So you need 64/27 or a little over 2 1/3 cubic yards of sand.
