Farm-fresh Kentucky Bluegrass, Tall Fescue, and Bluegrass-Fescue blend sod — cut to order and delivered directly to your Sunapee property. One pallet delivered is $699, with volume pricing that drops as your project grows.
Sunapee is a Lake Sunapee resort village — the Sunapee Harbor village waterfront, the Lake Sunapee shoreline estate corridor, the Mount Sunapee ski-resort approach, the Georges Mills section, and the rural Wendell blocks. The soils sit on lake-bottom loam along the immediate Lake Sunapee shoreline and glacial-till loam on the upland Mount Sunapee blocks. The cool mountain nights, the short summers, and the aggressive winter freeze-thaw cycles all narrow which sod varieties actually survive year over year. 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 Sunapee 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 Sunapee Harbor waterfront lot or a Lake Sunapee shoreline property 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.

Sunapee is one of 3 Upper Valley towns on our Upper Valley sod delivery hub, and part of our broader New Hampshire sod delivery coverage across the Northeast.
This page covers sod delivery — pallets dropped at your Sunapee property for you or your landscaper to install. Have your prep, grading, and topsoil ready on delivery day so the sod can go right 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 — several feet down for the drought-and-traffic tolerance a New Hampshire mountain lot needs. The right choice for Sunapee Harbor and any full-sun resort or mountain-home property.
A balanced blend that performs in the mixed sun-and-shade conditions of most Sunapee yards — especially the older blocks through Sunapee Harbor and Mount Sunapee where mature canopy throws heavy afternoon shade. Bluegrass for the rich color; tall fescue for the deep roots and resilience.
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.
Straightforward, delivered pricing. One pallet is a flat all-in price; larger orders are priced per square foot on a sliding scale.
| Order Size | Pallets | Price | Delivery |
|---|---|---|---|
| 500 sq ft | 1 pallet | $699 flat | Included |
| 600 sq ft | 1 pallet | $749 flat | Included |
| 600–1,100 sq ft | 1–2 pallets | $.90 / sq ft | + $99 |
| 1,200–2,000 sq ft | 2–4 pallets | $.75 / sq ft | + $99 |
| 2,100–3,900 sq ft | 4–8 pallets | $.70 / sq ft | + $99 |
| 4,000+ sq ft | 8+ pallets | $.66 / sq ft | + $99 |
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.
One pallet is a flat $699 with delivery included — no surprises at checkout. Larger orders follow a clear per-square-foot scale. You always know what you are paying before the truck rolls.
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.
Our blog library covers Best sod for New Hampshire, watering, rooting, and seasonal timing. Order from people who actually understand turf in this climate.
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 Sunapee. Our forklift places the pallets where you want them.
Install the sod the day it arrives for best results. Then water it in well.
Every delivery is a little different, but these are the projects we see most often in Sunapee.
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. A single pallet covers most repair jobs — 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.
Sunapee landscape crews order from us because the product is consistent and the delivery window is predictable — no dried-out sod showing up on a Sunapee Harbor or Lake Sunapee install where the homeowner is watching.
Mixed-light yards where seed struggles. The right sod variety establishes where seeding fails — see our guide to the best sod for shaded yards.
We deliver to every Sunapee neighborhood — Sunapee Harbor, Lake Sunapee, Mount Sunapee, Georges Mills, Wendell, and the residential properties out toward the surrounding town lines.
A Sunapee delivery comes with mountain-town access patterns — steep driveways, narrow lanes through the resort corridor, low-canopy stretches, and gated estate roads. The all-terrain machine handles most of it and sets each pallet where your crew is working rather than at the road.
The steep mountain driveways and the gated estate roads are the thing to plan for, which we sort out before the truck rolls. If your driveway is gated, steep, or narrow, call (203) 806-4086 before ordering so we can plan the run.
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.
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.

“Excellent price and high quality work. All the workers were clean and respectful. The whole process took a few weeks from order to installation however it is well worth the wait. They also sodded extra areas and did some mulch at no charge.”
