Sod was delivered on time and turned out great. Reasonable price and excellent sod.
Picked up a few extra trailer loads and turned out great again.

They were amazing, they helped me with all my needs. The staff is amazing they even loaded up my car for me and made sure it was covered properly so my trunk wasnt full of top soil. The service was so amazing I went back the week After for more. I could of gone near my home but the quality and service won me over. Will definitely recommend to my family and friends.

While they have great quality sod SOMETIMES, their punctuality and professionalism lacks extremely. The guy operating the tractor is definitely a drunkard who shouldn't be allowed to deal with customers. He's either completely hammered or just the rudest guy I've seen in a while. Probably both because he does emit a raunchy smell of cheap rum. Learn to deal better with customers and you won't keep getting such negative reviews. And watch out for the older woman in the shack at the entrance. She's not the friendliest either. Make sure not to interrupt her important phone calls with business for

Cannot return 1 cubic yard waste bags due to covid? How wasteful that all that plastic will end up in landfills. How about you come up with another plan to better suit the environment if you're too afraid of a virus. Plus the staff are just plain rude.

I am truly disappointed with the service at Petersons. On multiple occasions I have pre ordered my sod as instructed by Petersons 2-3 days before pickup, only to show up and my order is not ready. The staff are extremely rude and dont seem to care about their customers. They have lost my business I highly recommend getting your sod elsewhere if your looking to get it on time and kind and thought full staff. A word to the wise Petersons, Learn to admit when your wrong and get better organized. We are trying to run a business and your lack of care and organization impacts more then just

Installed Petersen's Turf myself along with the help of my 13 year old and their grass is the best. We laid down 140 rolls June 25 and it looks magnificent still 30 days later!
