    Hi, Dave,
    Approximately 5 /12 cubic yards.
    The hole would be 1 ft x 10 ft x 15 ft, = 150 cubic feet.
    There are 27 cubic feet in 1 cubic yard.
    So, 150 divided by 27 = 5.55 cubic yards.
    That's about 3 pickup truck loads, depending on how much you put in the pickup, and what type it is.
    Best wishes.
