Farm-fresh Kentucky Bluegrass, Tall Fescue, and Bluegrass-Fescue blend sod — cut to order and delivered directly to your Sands Point property. Nassau North Shore orders are priced per square foot ($0.30/sq ft adjustment, 1200 sq ft minimum) with volume pricing as your project grows.
Sands Point sits on the tip of the Cow Neck peninsula north of Port Washington in the Town of North Hempstead — a small, exclusively residential village ringed by the Long Island Sound on three sides, the historic Gold Coast estate corridor that inspired the East Egg of The Great Gatsby, with the Sands Point Preserve covering the former Guggenheim and Hearst estates. The lots run from two-acre-minimum residential through multi-acre water-influenced estate parcels along the bluff, the soils sit on the Cow Neck moraine of sandy salt-influenced loam on the bluff and waterfront and glacial-till loam over sandy subsoil on the interior, and the lawns deal with salt-air corrosion off three sides of Sound against the institutional landscape standard the village has held for a century. 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 Sands Point 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 Middle Neck Road estate block or an interior single-family parcel 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.

Sands Point is one of 6 Nassau County towns on our Nassau County sod delivery hub, and part of our broader New York sod delivery coverage across the Northeast.
This page covers sod delivery — pallets dropped at your Sands Point property for you or your landscaper to install. Have your soil prep, grading, and topsoil ready on delivery day so the sod can go straight down.
Cool-season sod suited to Northeast lawns. Not sure which fits your property? Call (203) 806-4086 and describe your sun, shade, and foot traffic — we will point you to the right one.
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.
The deepest root system of the common cool-season grasses — roots reaching several feet down for exceptional drought tolerance and salt-tolerance without irrigation. The right choice for the open full-sun Sands Point bluff lots where sandy soil dries out fast and salt-air carries off three sides of Sound, and for the multi-acre estate parcels where running daily irrigation across the whole property is impractical.
A balanced blend that performs in the mixed sun-and-shade conditions of most Sands Point yards — the interior estate parcels and the older village blocks where mature white oaks and tulip poplars throw heavy afternoon shade. Bluegrass contributes the rich color expected on a Sands Point Preserve-adjacent front lawn; tall fescue adds the deep roots and traffic durability and the salt-tolerance the bluff lots need.
A premium tall fescue cultivar with underground runners that fill in bare spots, worn paths, and pet-urine damage automatically. The most dog-resistant cool-season sod available — the right choice for households where standard sod has failed before. Custom pricing; call for a quote.
Nassau North Shore pricing — $0.30/sq ft adjustment across all varieties, with a 1200 sq ft minimum order.
| Order Size | Pallets | Base Price | Nassau North Shore Adjusted |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1,200–2,000 sq ft | 2–4 pallets | $.75 / sq ft | $1.05 / sq ft |
| 2,100–3,900 sq ft | 4–8 pallets | $.70 / sq ft | $1.00 / sq ft |
| 4,000+ sq ft | 8+ pallets | $.66 / sq ft | $.96 / sq ft |
Measure the area you want to sod, then match it to the table above. One pallet covers 500–600 square feet.
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.
Anyone can drop a pallet in your driveway. Here is what makes our delivery worth ordering.
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.
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.
Nassau North Shore pricing is transparent — the $0.30/sq ft adjustment is built into every quote, no hidden fees on delivery day.
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.

First time ordering from us? Here is exactly how it works, so there are no surprises.
Measure your area and call (203) 806-4086. We confirm variety, quantity, and price.
We set a delivery date, typically 2–7 days out, and confirm your address and drop spot.
Your sod is cut fresh and delivered to Sands Point. Our forklift places the pallets where you want them.
Install the sod the day it arrives for best results. Then water it in well.
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.
We deliver to every Sands Point neighborhood — the historic Sands Point Preserve corridor, the Middle Neck Road estate blocks, the bluff lots along the Sound, and the interior single-family parcels through the Port Washington border.
A Sands Point delivery runs the peninsula pattern — the Cow Neck peninsula has a single-spine access road along Middle Neck Road, most estate parcels are gated and many sit on private association roads, the bluff lots carry grade and erosion-control constraints near the Sound, and the morning commuter window onto Port Washington Boulevard fills the access road. The all-terrain machine handles most of it and sets each pallet where your crew is working rather than at the road.
The gated estate entries and the bluff-lot grades are the thing to plan for, which we sort out before the truck rolls. If your driveway is gated or sits on the bluff, call (203) 806-4086 before ordering so we can plan it in advance.

Sod is a living product. A little planning around delivery day makes all the difference in how well your new lawn establishes.
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.
New sod needs water fast and often in the early days. Follow the first 14-day watering guide closely.
Sod roots into what is underneath it. Loose, graded topsoil makes a real difference — see the best topsoil for sod.
New sod knits down over the following weeks and months. Here is how new sod roots over 12 months.
Every delivery is a little different, but these are the projects we see most often in Sands Point.
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.
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.
Repairing dead patches, plow damage, or worn areas — see fixing bare spots with sod.
Clean, finished turf right up to hardscape edges. Sod establishes fast in these high-visibility areas — see Kentucky Bluegrass laid around a CT pool.
Sands Point landscape crews order from us because the product is consistent and the delivery window is predictable — no dried-out sod showing up on a Cow Neck peninsula install or a bluff-lot renovation where the property manager is on-site at the gate watching the drop.
Mixed-light yards where seed struggles. The right sod variety establishes where seeding fails — see our guide to the best sod for shaded yards.
Sands Point contractors work one of the most institutionally maintained landscapes on Long Island — the Cow Neck peninsula estate corridor where the lawn frames a Sound view and an established formal hedge line, the bluff lots where salt-air pressure has shaped a century of turf management, and the interior parcels with deep canopy and the Gold Coast residential rhythm. Fresh-cut sod is what lands on any of these contexts without standing out against decades of established turf.
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.
Verified customer reviews

“Excellent experience from start to finish. I reached out and they were able to not only give me accurate support in terms of measurements but told me exactly how to prep everything so I was completely ready for the delivery and installation. Pricing was competitive and good, and communication was even better. Greatly appreciative to the entire team who did an outstanding job.”
“I redid my yard last fall with the bluegrass fescue sod from CT Sod — it was the best thing I ever did for my lawn. My home is in Shelton, CT, we have a ton of trees and I always struggled with growing grass seed. This was my final attempt and it worked.”
“ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! Product was delivered on-time and as fresh as it gets. We installed sod about 2 years ago. With regular watering and fertilizing it looks very good. Highly recommend this company!”
“I’ve had sod deliveries from CT Sod to properties I have in both Greenwich and Milford. Each sod delivery has been high quality bluegrass sod, and both my neighbors and landscaper admired the quality. Kayla in the office even texts you the exact time it will come the night before. I couldn’t be more impressed with the service and product I received from CT Sod. You will not be disappointed with this sod company.”
“Amazing customer service and outstanding product. Best sod I have seen in 10 years of garden design & landscaping.”
“CT Sod’s website was very helpful for pricing and installation advice. Purchase was easy. The sod was very healthy when it arrived, my son and I installed, and it looks great.”
