Is this a good price?

I can pick up a pallet of bermuda sod for 205.00 per pallet.
I was expecting it to be more like 350 per pallet. Sodbusters and i see their trucks all around so gotta be ok.

Grass seed is coming in clumpy. I want to get enough sod laid around to minimize erosion.
I dont want rain taking my dirt away

Full sun is there.
Ive watered for 10min per area in the evenings all week

I used Scott's and i think their product just sucks ass.
Borrowing my buddies tractor so at least I killed the wheel barrel.
Im just not sure if im being impatient.
I figure 2 pallets every two weeks til it is done. Maybe 6-7 for entire area.

What kind of Bermuda? I think it's the Tiff 419 that looks sharp, not sure that's the actual right name tho.

Runs about 125 a pallet here but we have a lot of sod fields.

Also laying sod sucks especially when you get into some fire ants. Did it as a side job in HS.

Quoted $250/pallet for St. Augustine installed with sand this morning by our lawn guy here in Houston.

Horrible price because it’s Bermuda. Can you not grow fescue where you live?

Not well. I live in a swamp. Too wet. Give dropped 32 yards of fill dirt and 26 of top top soil. I was told Bermuda or crabgrass are best for my area. I bought about 17 months ago and tried fescue seed. Came up ok then when it got rainy it all died. So i tried. Did not work
