How much is 200 pounds of sand?

The cost of 200 pounds of sand depends on the type of sand, where you buy it, and whether you have it delivered or pick it up yourself. For common play sand, all-purpose sand, or paver sand sold in 50 pound bags at home improvement stores like Home Depot or Lowes, each bag costs about 5 to 8 dollars, so 200 pounds, which is four bags, would cost about 20 to 32 dollars plus tax if you pick it up yourself. For bulk sand bought from a landscape supply yard, 200 pounds is about 0.1 ton, and bulk sand costs about 20 to 50 dollars per ton, so 200 pounds might cost as little as 5 to 15 dollars, but there is often a minimum purchase or a delivery fee of 50 to 100 dollars that makes small amounts more expensive. Specialty sands like white beach sand, aquarium sand, polymeric sand, or silica sand cost more, around 15 to 30 dollars per 50 pound bag, so 200 pounds could be 60 to 120 dollars. For delivery, if you need 200 pounds delivered to your home, expect to pay 75 to 150 dollars total including delivery. So for cheap all-purpose sand, budget 25 to 40 dollars for 200 pounds if you haul it yourself.
