Handy Rubbish › How Big Is a Cubic Yard
What we do

One cubic yard measures as 3 x 3 x 3

In total, a cubic yard measures 3ft x 3ft x 3ft. This is larger than the equivalent of two general washing machines. For that reason, don’t be shocked if we request of you to give us a rough estimate of your rubbish in washing machines over the phone. Every item obviously can be different from others which is why we confirm a precise yardage measurement before we start. Then there won’t be any problems.
