How Much to Order

One Pallet Covers 400 Square Feet

Measure the lawn in feet, multiply length by width, and divide by 400, rounding up; edges and beds use more than the math says. Have the drop spot picked before the truck arrives, as close to the lawn as the forklift can reach.

Sarasota Ordering Questions

Free Delivery, Timing, Quantities, and Installation

Is sod delivery free in Sarasota?

Yes, for homeowners, starting at one pallet (400 sq ft). Landscapers and larger orders get a delivered price with the quote. Call (941) 702-1746 for today’s pallet price.

How soon can sod be delivered to Sarasota?

We cut it the morning it ships and schedule around the day you or your crew will be ready to lay it, because stacked sod heats from the inside and should go down the day it lands. Call with your date and we will tell you what the harvest schedule allows.

Can I buy less than a pallet?

Delivery starts at one pallet. Smaller amounts, from a single $3.75 piece, are sold at the farm store in Bradenton, Mon to Fri 8 to 4:30, Sat 8 to 12.

Which grass should I order for a Sarasota yard?

Floratam St. Augustine for sunny, irrigated yards; Bitterblue or ProVista St. Augustine under oaks; Bahia with no sprinklers; Bimini Bermuda for heavy traffic in full sun; EMPIRE Zoysia for a dense, fine lawn. Our Sarasota grass page compares them.

Can I water new sod during the restrictions?

Yes. New lawns get a 60-day establishment period under the District's order, any day for 30 days and three days a week for the next 30, if you register the variance first. Our Sarasota County water restrictions guide has the steps.

Can you install it in Sarasota too?

Yes. Our crew removes the old lawn with a sod cutter, preps the soil, and lays the new sod, and you make the final payment only when you are satisfied. See sod installation in Sarasota.

Is Turf Care available in Sarasota?

Yes. Turf Care serves Manatee and Sarasota counties, with plans from $79 a month that include soil testing. See Turf Care plans.
