You can buy sod from several sources depending on your needs and location:
- Local sod farms and wholesale nurseries are often the cheapest option for buying sod in bulk. They typically sell pallets of sod and may offer delivery to your site for $50 to $200. Buying wholesale requires a minimum order, but prices per pallet are lower ($130 to $360) compared to retail
- Home improvement stores like Home Depot and Lowe’s sell sod retail, usually in pallets of about 450-500 square feet. Prices are higher here, around $450 per pallet, but they often include free delivery for small orders. These stores are convenient for smaller projects or if you need sod quickly
- Online sod suppliers such as Super-Sod and Green Thumb Nursery offer fresh sod by the roll, pallet, or truckload with delivery options. They provide a variety of grass types and allow you to order directly to your home
- For smaller quantities or single pieces of sod, big box stores like Home Depot and Lowe’s are usually the best bet, as sod farms typically require pallet orders. Some local garden centers or Facebook Marketplace groups may also have smaller amounts available
- If you are in Ontario, Canada, there are specific sod farms like Greenhorizons Sod Farms that supply sod and deliver locally
In summary, for bulk and cheaper sod, go to local sod farms or wholesale suppliers. For convenience and smaller orders, check Home Depot, Lowe’s, or online sod retailers. Always order a few days in advance and confirm delivery options and freshness of the sod for best results
