Sod Delivery & Installation in Austin, TX
Convenient yard pickup with forklift loading, direct site delivery, and complete turnkey sod installation for residential and commercial properties.
Sod Pickup at Our North Austin Retail Yard
Located at 15008 N IH-35 in Austin, Texas. We welcome contractors, landscape crews, and DIY homeowners for quick pickup.
Our retail yard is equipped with industrial forklifts to load pallets directly onto your truck bed or trailer. We handle both full pallets and smaller quantities of select varieties (such as piece or half pallets of Tif 419 Bermuda or half pallets of Raleigh St. Augustine).
Because sod is a perishable, living plant, it is cut fresh on Texas farms the day before pickup and should be laid within 24–48 hours of harvest for optimal root establishment.

Crucial Vehicle & Trailer Weight Rules
- 1 Pallet = Approx. 1 Ton (2,000 lbs): Weight fluctuates based on farm soil moisture and morning humidity.
- Truck Recommendation: Bring a 3/4-ton or 1-ton truck (e.g. F-250/2500 series) or an appropriately rated utility trailer with tandem axles and functional trailer brakes.
- Half-Ton Trucks (F-150 / 1500): Can safely carry only a half pallet or small number of loose pieces. Overloading half-ton trucks can cause dangerous suspension damage or tire failure.
- Securement: Bring heavy-duty ratchet tie-down straps and a tarp for open highway transport.
Flatbed Delivery Across Austin & Central Texas
We deliver fresh sod pallets directly to residential driveways, curbsides, and commercial staging areas across the greater Austin metropolitan region.
Location & Quantity Based Rates
Delivery charges depend on your delivery address, mileage from our facility or partner sod farms, and the total pallet count requested. Typical Austin-area flatbed delivery starts around $175.
Forklift Dimensions & Gate Access
Our truck-mounted offload forklift is 8.5 feet wide. It will NOT fit through standard residential backyard pedestrian gates (which are typically 3 to 4 feet wide). Pallets are placed on driveways or curbs.
Staging & Placement Safety
Drivers cannot drive over septic drain fields, fragile water meter boxes, decorative pavers, or underground utilities. Please ensure driveways are clear of vehicles on delivery day.
