Sod Calculator

Measure one or more lawn areas, add an allowance, and convert the result into whole rolls, pallets or other supplier purchase units.

Behind the numbers

How the sod calculation works

Total lawn area × (1 + extra allowance) = purchase target
Purchase target ÷ supplier coverage = purchase units
Purchase units round up to a whole unit

Supplier roll and pallet sizes vary, so DIYSum uses the coverage value you enter instead of assuming a universal package size.

Planning tips

Measure separate lawn sections individually and include only areas you plan to sod. Check the supplier's coverage per pallet, roll or bundle before ordering.
