[Upton O. Goode]

Thanks, I think that must be what it is (see my previous comment on 10 cubic yards). These measurements sound more in line with what he delivered. However, I think the price was excessive.

Three hundred dollars for 10 yards of topsoil delivered is a fair price, at least in the northeast.

You can google prices for your area. I did one quick one and it's 31.50 per yard delivered in western NY.
