Sod for Small Landscapers

The Best Small Landscaper Commercial Sod Near You Because... We Are the Farm.

Small landscapers buy sod from Bayside Sod the way a crew needs it: any quantity, often on hand at the farm store the same day, loaded on your schedule or dropped at the job site by the pallet.

For Crews

Sod on Hand, Loaded on Your Schedule, or Dropped at the Site

  • Pick up on your schedule

    The farm store at 19810 FL-64, Bradenton is open Mon to Fri 8 to 4:30, Sat 8 to 12. Buy by the piece, the pallet, or a trailer load; we load it for you.

  • Varieties often on hand

    Several varieties are usually cut and stacked at the store, so a same-day job does not wait on a harvest. Call ahead and we will confirm what is on the ground.

  • Delivery to the job site

    From one pallet up, set down where your crew needs it. Delivery is only $75 to local addresses; other addresses are quoted.

Our Guarantee

Guaranteed the Highest Quality Sod Near You

If you are not satisfied with the quality of your sod upon arrival, we will replace it or refund your money. Bayside Sod is a fifth-generation family farm, growing sod in Bradenton since 1987; wholesale sod is most of what we cut, and most of it goes to repeat accounts.

How Ordering Works

Call in Your Order, Let Us Know Pick Up or Delivery

  1. Call with the variety and count

    Tell us the grass, the square footage or pallet count (one pallet is 400 sq ft), and whether you are picking up or want it dropped.

  2. We cut it or pull it from stock

    Small orders usually come off the stacks at the store. Larger orders are cut for your pickup time or delivery window.

  3. Lay it the day you get it

    Stacked sod heats from the inside, and in Florida summer a pallet left overnight yellows in the middle. Plan the pickup for the morning of the install.

How Much Sod Do You Need?

One pallet covers 400 sq ft. Divide your square footage by 400 and round up.

Enter your measurements to see how many pallets you need.

Customer Feedback

What Customers Say About Loading Up at the Farm

Lee B. Google review
"I was interested in having new sod put down. Called for recommendations. Called me back immediately. Very patient. Very professional. Could not have been easier to work with. Highly recommend."
Paul C. Google review
"Stopped here for a couple pieces of sod to fill in the spot under our old basketball hoop. Perfect size, perfect price. Try them out!"
Anthony H. Google review
"Bayside Sod installed new sod in my back yard three months ago and I engaged them to treat the entire yard monthly. They are doing an excellent job in maintaining the grass. They are always responsive when I call and will send their technician out upon request when ever I have an issue. Ryan Sigrist (Director of Turf Services) is always responsive and treat the company like he is the owner. I have been in my home for seven years and this is the best that I have seen my lawn."
Landscaper Questions

Stock, Pieces, Job-Site Drops, and Pricing

Can I buy sod by the piece for patch jobs?

Yes. Pieces are 16 by 24 inches (2.67 sq ft) and $3.75 each at the farm store, in any quantity. Most patch jobs for a maintenance route come off the stacks the same day.

Do you have sod in stock, or is everything cut to order?

Both. Several varieties are usually stacked at the store for same-day pickup, and larger orders are cut for your date. Call in the morning and we will tell you what is on the ground that day.

Do you deliver to job sites?

Yes, from one pallet (400 sq ft). Give us the site address, a contact on site, and where the forklift can set the pallets down. Delivery is $75 to local addresses; other addresses are quoted with the order.

Is there a landscaper price?

Pallet pricing depends on the variety and the volume. Call (941) 702-1746 or send the quote form with your typical monthly volume and we will price it. Repeat accounts make up most of what we cut.

Which varieties do you carry?

Floratam, Bitterblue, ProVista, and Fusion St. Augustine; EMPIRE and CitraZoy Zoysia; Bimini Bermuda; and Bahia, all grown on our own farm, plus Comand compost for soil prep. Every pallet is one variety.

What if a load arrives in poor shape?

If the quality of the sod disappoints you on arrival, we replace it or refund your money. Call the farm before it is laid so we can see it.

Can your crew install a job for my customer?

Yes. We install for landscapers who would rather sell the job than lay it, from a front yard to common grounds.
