That Old Grass Has to Go

You're tearing out your old lawn to put in new sod, artificial turf, or a xeriscape design. Maybe the grass is dead and you're starting fresh. Either way, you've stripped out the sod and now you've got a pile of dirt, roots, and dead grass sitting in your yard.

Top Shelf handles sod removal throughout the Boise area. We deal with old grass from yard renovations, dead lawns that need to be hauled away, and sod from landscaping projects. Our team loads it all up - grass, roots, dirt, and whatever else came up with it - and hauls it away so you can move forward with your new yard.

Old sod usually goes to a green waste facility where it gets composted or recycled. We'll make sure it's disposed of properly and doesn't just end up in a landfill.

Common Questions

Do you remove the sod or just haul it away?

Both. We can strip sod from your yard and load it up, or if you've already cut it, we'll haul the rolls or pieces away.

Why would someone need sod removed?

Common reasons include converting lawn to xeriscaping, installing artificial turf, building a patio, or starting a landscaping project with fresh soil.

How much does sod removal cost?

Pricing depends on the area size. Sod is relatively lightweight, so it's mainly about square footage. Call (208) 593-2877 for a quote.

Can you remove sod with the roots?

Yes. We strip it down to bare dirt so you have a clean surface for whatever comes next.
