π‘ How Much Does Sod Weigh?
A standard sod roll (2 Γ 5 ft, 10 sq ft) weighs approximately 15 lbs when freshly cut under normal moisture conditions. Wet sod can weigh 30% more (19β20 lbs per roll). A full pallet (~450 sq ft, ~45 rolls) weighs about 1,500 lbs under normal conditions β up to 2,000 lbs when wet.
Weight matters for delivery and transport. A standard pickup truck can carry about 1 pallet (1,500 lbs). A half-ton truck should limit to 1 pallet. A 3/4-ton truck can carry 2 pallets. For larger jobs, have the supplier deliver. Sod should be installed the same day it's delivered β it deteriorates quickly in stacked pallets.
1 pallet (normal moisture): 1,500 lbs. 50 individual rolls: 750 lbs. Total: 2,250 lbs. Wet conditions: add 30% = 2,925 lbs β you'll need a heavy-duty truck or trailer.
