How much does a cubic yard of pit run gravel weigh?

Answer 1

It depends on the size of your gravel (the amount of air trapped between the rocks). If you have small gravel (decomposed granite) it'll weigh more - if you have larger rocks, (river rocks, etc) it'll weigh less. It usually ranges from 1.3, 1.4 to 1.8, 1.9 tons.

Answer 2

A cubic foot of dry, loose gravel with 1/4" to 2" stones is 105 pounds per cubic foot. So, a cubic yard is that times 27, or 2835 lb. (There are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard.)

Answer 3

4 yard weighs 6 tons so if you do the math 2 yards = 3 tons and 1 yards = 1.50 tons and to answer your Question 1 yard of base weighs 1.50 tons or 3000 Lbs

Answer 4

A cubic yard of pit run gravel typically weighs around 2,700 to 3,000 pounds, depending on the specific composition of the gravel and the moisture content.

Answer 5

2800 pounds more or less depending on the size of the gravel and whether it is wet.
