Well.....A cubic yard is a measure of volume, so the answer is....it takes a cubic yard (IE it would fill a box that was one yard wide by one yard long by one yard high. If you follow this link (http://www.rexius.com/faq.html) you will see a cubic yard of soil typically weighs around 1300 to 1600 lbs. To give you an alternate form of measurement, you are looking for 27 cu ft to fill a cubic yard of topsoil.

How much soil would it take to fill a well 32 feet deep and 4 feet in diameter?

To calculate the volume of soil needed to fill the well, you can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder: V = πr^2h, where r is the radius (half the diameter) and h is the height. In this case, the radius is 2 feet and the height is 32 feet. Therefore, the volume of soil needed would be approximately 804.25 cubic feet.
