Sod Sizing & Coverage Guide


1 pallet = 50 rolls = 500 sq ft

Each pallet covers an area approx. the size of 2 parking spaces (or a 2-car garage)


1 roll = 10 sq ft

Each roll covers an area approx. the size of a large bath towel (2ft x 5ft)


Additional size references:

  • A tennis court is about 2,000 sq ft (4 pallets)
  • A basketball court is about 5,000 sq ft (10 pallets)
  • A 1/4 acre is about 10,000 square feet (20 pallets)
  • A 1/2 acre is about 20,000 square feet (40 pallets)

What if my square footage is in-between full pallets?

This is a common scenario when planning and ordering sod. Depending on how close you are to the next full pallet size (or multiple of 500 sq ft), you can either round up with some overage or place a separate order for rolls to be picked up in a local store.

Elite Tall Fescue Sod Description

Elite Tall Fescue sod is a blend of cool season varieties adapted to sun or shade.

  • Most shade-tolerant of the turf grasses requiring 3-4 hours of sun; all turf grasses need some sun to survive
  • Establishes as a lawn that’s tolerant of moderately moist soils
  • A cool season turfgrass
  • Dark green-colored blades
  • Attractive medium-textured turfgrass
  • Provides an excellently green-colored lawn year round

 

Please be aware that Tall Fescue is a Cool Season grass that is best installed when daytime temperatures range from 60 to 80 degrees and nighttime lows are below 60 degrees. Generally, this range for many of the areas we service is from September through April. The warmer and more humid it is outside when installed, the more it will struggle to root and survive the summer heat. Even with extensive watering and care there is a much higher likelihood of transition issues, leading to an increased need to re-sod and/or overseed in the fall. For these reasons, we recommend installing Tall Fescue during the cooler times of the year and will not guarantee suitability, survival or performance of Tall Fescue when installed outside of these parameters.
