Far Hills is one of the lowest-density and highest-value boroughs in the Somerset Hills — rolling horse country with multi-acre estate lots, pasture-style front lawns, and the kind of single-family properties built around stables, paddocks, and long approach drives. The soil is loam over Newark Basin shale at varying depth, and most lawns split between full-sun pasture sections and shaded interior under mature oaks. None of that does a tired pallet any favors. Sod is a living crop cut from the field, and a pallet left stacked declines fast: the core heats, the blades yellow, and the roots release the soil they grew in. Laid from an aged pallet, sod that is already weakened has little chance to root before it browns.

We cut to order so it arrives with everything it has. Your Far Hills load is harvested the morning of delivery or the evening before and on the truck within a day, reaching you cool and still rooted — ready to lay on a pasture-style front lawn or a shaded interior section and knit in within about two weeks. It is the opposite of a box-store pallet that has dried out on a rack for days before you cart it home.

☀️ Min sun: 6+ hrs🌳 Shade: Low–Medium

Kentucky Bluegrass Sod

The most recognizable cool-season sod in the Northeast — fine, dark blue-green blades and the dense "carpet lawn" look homeowners associate with premium turf. It self-repairs through underground rhizomes, filling in bare spots naturally. Best for properties with irrigation and full to lightly shaded sun.

Turf-Type Tall Fescue Sod

The right choice for the multi-acre pasture-style front lawns where running heavy irrigation across the entire lot is impractical. Tall fescue’s deep roots hold color through Far Hills summers, and the durability handles horses, dogs, and the kind of weekend traffic that comes with a working estate.

How Much Sod Will Your Far Hills Lawn Need?

Measure the area you want to sod, then match it to the table above. One pallet covers 500–600 square feet.

Measuring Your Area

For a simple rectangular lawn, multiply length by width to get square footage. For irregular yards, break the space into rectangles, measure each, and add them together. It is smart to add about 5–10% extra for cuts, curves, and trimming around beds, walkways, and trees.

Sod is sold by the pallet, so orders round up to the next full pallet. If your project measures 900 square feet, you will order 2 pallets. Not sure how to measure or which tier you land in? Call (203) 806-4086 with your rough dimensions and we will size it with you in a couple of minutes. You can also read how much sod comes on a pallet for more detail.

Once Your Far Hills Sod Is Delivered

Sod is a living product. A little planning around delivery day makes all the difference in how well your new lawn establishes.

Lay It the Same Day

Sod should go down the day it arrives. Have your prepped soil ready and a plan to install before delivery — see why sod needs to be laid immediately.

Water Within the First Hour

New sod needs water fast and often in the early days. Follow the first 14-day watering guide closely.

Prep the Soil First

Sod roots into what is underneath it. Loose, graded topsoil makes a real difference — see the best topsoil for sod.

Know the Rooting Timeline

New sod knits down over the following weeks and months. Here is how new sod roots over 12 months.

How Far Hills Sod Delivery Works

Delivering Across Far Hills

Delivery Access & Drop-Off in Far Hills

A Far Hills delivery is built around multi-acre estates with gravel drives, pasture access, and the occasional gated entry, so the drop placement has to be planned. A roadside drop leaves the sod a long way from a pasture-style front lawn set well back from the road. The all-terrain machine handles the gravel and grass without tearing up turf and sets each pallet close to where the work is happening.

Gated drives and paddock access are the thing to plan for, which we sort out before the truck rolls. If your property has paddock access or a gated drive, call (203) 806-4086 before ordering so we can coordinate.

Don’t Get Stuck With Dried-Out Sod

The most common sod mistake is buying on price alone and ending up with old, dried-out turf. Sod that has sat too long arrives yellow, brittle, and slow to root — and no amount of watering fully recovers it. By the time it fails, the money is already spent.

Fresh, recently harvested sod is the whole point. We cut to order and deliver within a tight window so the turf goes down healthy. If you want the background on how this goes wrong elsewhere, read the sod delivery scam and how to stop it and how long sod can sit before laying.

Why Order Sod From CT Sod in Far Hills

Anyone can drop a pallet in your driveway. Here is what makes our delivery worth ordering.

Cut Fresh, Delivered Fast

We coordinate the harvest with your delivery date. Your sod is cut within days of delivery, not pulled from a pile that has been baking for a week. Fresh sod roots faster and greens up stronger.

Forklift Placement

Our trucks carry all-terrain forklifts, so pallets get placed where you actually need them — not dumped at the end of the driveway. That saves you and your crew from hauling heavy sod across the property by hand.

Honest, Delivered Pricing

Somerset Hills pricing follows our standard per-square-foot scale — no regional surcharge, no hidden fees on delivery day. Two-pallet (1,200 sq ft) minimum.

The Right Variety for Your Yard

Bluegrass, Tall Fescue, blend, or RTF — we help you match the sod to your sun, shade, traffic, and whether you have dogs. The wrong variety is the most common reason new lawns disappoint.

What Far Hills Customers Order Sod For

Every delivery is a little different, but these are the projects we see most often in Far Hills.

Full Lawn Replacement

Tearing out a tired, weedy, or patchy lawn and starting fresh. Sod gives you an instant, established-looking lawn the day it goes down — no waiting through a season of seeding and bare dirt.

New Construction & Renovations

After a build, addition, pool install, or hardscape project, the yard needs turf. Fresh sod finishes the property quickly and cleanly once grading is done.

Bare Spots & Winter Damage

Repairing dead patches, plow damage, or worn areas — see fixing bare spots with sod.

Around Pools & Patios

Clean, finished turf right up to hardscape edges. Sod establishes fast in these high-visibility areas — see Kentucky Bluegrass laid around a CT pool.

Landscaper & Contractor Supply

Far Hills landscapers order from us because the product is consistent and the delivery window holds — no yellowing inner-stack sod showing up on a multi-acre install where the owner has been walking past the prepped grade all week.

Shaded & Difficult Yards

Mixed-light yards where seed struggles. The right sod variety establishes where seeding fails — see our guide to the best sod for shaded yards.

For Far Hills Landscapers & Contractors

Far Hills sod jobs run through landscape architects and equestrian-property specialists working on phased estate plans, and the front pasture lawn is the visual that frames the entire property. Fresh sod that knits in clean is what closes out the install on schedule.

We deliver fresh-cut pallets on a predictable schedule, with forklift placement that saves your crew the backbreaking haul across the property. For recurring orders or multi-job scheduling, call (203) 806-4086 and talk to us directly.

Highly recommend CT Sod. Sean was a pleasure to work with and the quality is top notch. Weather had delayed the delivery for a few days, so Sean and his crew installed the sod free of charge for the inconvenience. Couldn’t be happier with the results and I will be using CT Sod for all of my sod in the future.

Excellent product and service! We ordered sod last year and the product was perfect! We installed it ourselves by first removing weeds and slightly tillering the site since we have heavy clay soil. The grass looked amazing when we installed and now in spring is perfect. We did water a lot after installing it but the time money and effort paid off. I recommend this supplier, thanks CTSod.

How much sod is on a pallet?

How soon can you deliver sod to Far Hills?

Scheduling is typically 2 to 7 days from when you place your order. Spring and fall are the busiest seasons, so order as early as you can to get the date you want.

Which sod variety should I order?

Kentucky Bluegrass for an irrigated, classic ornamental lawn; Tall Fescue for full sun without irrigation and high traffic; the Bluegrass-Fescue blend for typical mixed sun-and-shade yards; and RTF for homes with dogs. Read Best sod for Northern NJ estate properties, or call and describe your yard.

Where will the pallets be placed?

Our trucks carry all-terrain forklifts, so we place pallets where you need them on the property rather than leaving everything at the curb. Tell us your preferred drop spot when you order, and flag any access concerns — gates, narrow drives, soft ground — ahead of time.

Do I need to install the sod the same day it is delivered?

Yes — sod is a living product and should be laid the day it arrives. Have your soil prepped and a plan in place before delivery. See why sod needs to be laid immediately after delivery.

How do I prepare for my sod delivery?

Have the area cleared, graded, and topsoiled before delivery day so the sod can go straight down. See how to prep your yard for sod and the best topsoil for sod.

How do I order sod for delivery to Far Hills?

Call (203) 806-4086. We will confirm your variety, square footage, price, and a delivery date, then deliver fresh-cut sod to your Far Hills property.

Our front pasture lawn is multi-acre and full sun without irrigation everywhere. What sod holds up?

On the multi-acre pasture-style front lawns where running heavy irrigation across the whole lot is impractical, Tall Fescue is the call — its deep roots hold color through a Far Hills summer and the durability handles horses, dogs, and the weekend traffic that comes with a working estate. The loam over shale gives those roots room to reach, which is what keeps the color when the irrigation does not cover the far sections.

Our interior under the oaks runs shady. What sod works?

On the shaded interior sections under the mature oaks, the bluegrass-fescue blend is the call — the fescue carries the shade tolerance and the deep roots that pasture-style maintenance rewards while the bluegrass brings the color the front of the property expects. On the open full-sun pasture sections, straight Tall Fescue holds up better through a dry stretch.

Our drive is long gravel with a gated entry and paddock access. Where do the pallets go?

On a long gravel Far Hills drive with a gated entry the forklift carries each pallet past the gate and onto the property close to where your crew is working rather than leaving it at the end of the drive, and it sets down on grass or gravel without tearing anything up. Tell us about the gate and the paddock access when you order and we'll coordinate it.

Still have questions? Call (203) 806-4086 and we'll walk you through pricing, scheduling, and prep.
