The trash Americans generate ends up in landfills. Landfills are becoming full and it is a problem to decide what to do with all the trash.
To convert pounds to cubic yards for trash, you need to know the density of the trash in pounds per cubic yard. The density can vary depending on the type of trash. Once you have the density, you can use the formula: Cubic yards = (Weight in pounds) / (Density in pounds per cubic yard).
