Sod Delivery in Gentilly, LA
Fresh-cut NOLA-rated sod rolls delivered to Gentilly. Same-day delivery available.
Why Fresh-Cut Sod Delivery Gives Your Gentilly Lawn a Better Start.
Gentilly delivery orders come from homeowners and landscapers working on flood-rebuild properties across one of the city lowest-elevation neighborhoods. Getting fresh-cut sod to a Gentilly address fast matters here because heat and soil moisture accelerate root deterioration quickly, and we cut to your order and deliver the same day.
- Some of the lowest elevation in the city means drainage prep is non-negotiable
- Post-flood rebuild soil has inconsistent composition requiring assessment
- Gentilly Ridge properties have better drainage than the lower-lying areas
Gentilly is a diverse, working-class neighborhood stretching from Bayou St. John to the lakefront. Like Lakeview, it suffered severe flooding in 2005 and has been steadily rebuilding. The soil in Gentilly sits on some of the lowest elevation in the city, making standing water after rainfall a near-universal problem that any sod installer must address before laying turf.

Why Most Sod Delivery Jobs Fail in Gentilly.
Louisiana conditions require a local approach. Most contractors bring a generic one.
Sod That Has Been Sitting Too Long
Sod delivered from central warehouses or big-box stores can sit for days before you receive it. Heat and time kill roots fast. We cut fresh and deliver the same day to Gentilly.
Wrong Variety in Stock
Retailers stock what sells broadly, not what works best for your specific conditions. We carry the varieties that perform in Louisiana soil, and we can guide you to the right choice for your yard.
No Guidance on What to Do with It
Buying sod without knowing your soil prep requirements is a common DIY mistake. We include care and prep guidance with every delivery so your sod goes in under the right conditions.

Sod Delivery in Gentilly: What to Expect.
How much sod do I need for my Gentilly property?
Measure the length and width of each area you are sodding and multiply them to get square footage. Add 5 to 10 percent for cuts and waste. If you are unsure, we can help you estimate based on your property description or send someone out for a quick measure.
What is the best grass type to order for delivery in Gentilly?
St. Augustine is the most commonly delivered variety in the East Bank New Orleans area and performs well in partial shade and clay soil. Bermuda is better for full-sun, high-traffic areas. Zoysia is a premium choice for dense, slow-growing lawns. Call us and we will match the variety to your conditions.
How quickly does delivered sod need to be installed?
Sod should be installed within 24 hours of delivery, and immediately if temperatures are above 90 degrees. Do not leave rolls stacked in direct sun. If you are not ready to install the day it arrives, keep rolls in a shaded area and mist with water until you are ready.
Do you deliver to all parts of Gentilly?
Yes. We deliver throughout Gentilly and the broader East Bank New Orleans area. Contact us with your address and we will confirm delivery timing and pricing for your location.
