About this calculator
Installing fresh turf grass provides an instant green lawn, but purchasing by the square yard or pallet requires precise area calculations to prevent sod from drying out on the pallet before installation.
This calculator computes your net lawn area, adds a recommended 5% to 10% cutting waste buffer for curves and perimeter edges, and outputs standard roll counts (typically 10 sq ft), square yards, and pallet counts (typically 500 sq ft per pallet).
How It Works & Formula
Total Sq Ft = Lawn Area × (1 + Waste %). Sod Rolls (10 sq ft) = ceil(Total Sq Ft / 10). Square Yards = Total Sq Ft / 9. Pallets (500 sq ft) = ceil(Total Sq Ft / 500).
