L*W*H
27
‘L’ is the length of your load, measured in feet; ‘W’ is the width of your load, also measured in feet; and, ‘H’ is the height of your load (in feet, too). Be sure to measure just the material, not the trailer or container it’s in. Once you have multiplied the length times the width times the height, divide this number by 27 (that’s how many cubic feet there are in one cubic yard). This will tell you how many cubic yards are in your load. Then, multiply that number by the disposal fee for the type of material you are bringing to the Ada County Landfill.
REMEMBER – For commercial customers, fees are not assessed by weight. Instead, the charge for a commercial load will be determined by the measured volume of the load.
| 4′ by 8′ by 2′ = 2 cubic yards | 7′ by 10′ by 4′ = 10 cubic yards |
| 5′ by 6′ by 3′ = 3 cubic yards | 7′ by 12′ by 4′ = 12 cubic yards |
| 5′ by 8′ by 3′ = 4 cubic yards | 7′ by 15′ by 4′ = 15 cubic yards |
