Thanks. The question I'm running into is what happens when they sell by weight? i.e. by the pound or by the ton. Is there a standard density conversion so I can figure how much volume there is in a ton (and then do the math you've outlined above)?

I've stopped by 3 stone yards locally, and they all sell by weight. Or by the "bag" (not listed on the bag how much volume), or by the "basket."
