Lawn material estimate
Sod Calculator
Measure one or more lawn sections, then estimate sod rolls or pieces and pallets using the coverage quoted by your supplier.
Sod summary
Area details
These are purchase estimates, not a guarantee of supplier packaging or installation yield.
How it works
Rectangle area = length × width. Circle area = π × radius². Triangle area = base × height ÷ 2. Add non-overlapping areas, then multiply by 1 + waste allowance ÷ 100. Divide the adjusted area by supplier coverage per roll or pallet and round up separately.
Feet or inches display ft²; meters or centimeters display m². Coverage inputs use that same displayed area unit.
Worked example
A 20 ft × 15 ft lawn is 300 ft². With 5% waste, plan for 315 ft². If a supplier's roll covers 10 ft², the estimate is 32 rolls. If a pallet covers 500 ft², the alternative estimate is 1 pallet.
These coverage values are examples only; actual sod dimensions and pallet counts vary by supplier.
