How much is a Yard?

A Yard is the volume of a box equal to 3 feet by 3 feet by 3 feet; also equal to 27 cubic feet.

A homeowner has a 30' x 50' lawn he wants to cover with 4" of screened loam.  How many Yards does he need?

Multiply the length (feet) times the width (feet) times the depth (inches) and divide by 324 to give you the total (in this case he needs a little over 18½ Yards).  Or, use Dr. Dirt's calculator above.
