Most sod falls between $2,066 and $8,059, with a typical figure near $4,081 per job. The low end is a straightforward job with no surprises; the high end covers complex scope, premium materials or urgent timing. In Minnesota, that is worth confirming with a local provider before you commit. ### What affects the price of sod? No single factor decides it — scope, materials, access and timing all move the total, and the biggest swings usually come from access and scheduling. The answer can shift with the Minnesota market, so check locally. ### Is Sod cheaper in smaller cities? Often, but not always. Smaller markets can carry a travel or availability premium that offsets a lower local rate, so it is worth checking a nearby city before assuming the lowest published figure applies to you. It is worth testing that against a couple of quotes in Minnesota. ### How many quotes should I get for sod? Two or three written quotes are enough to see the real market range. Compare the same scope side by side, and ask each provider what is excluded and what would change the price after the quote is accepted. Local providers in Minnesota can confirm how that applies to your area. ## Keep comparing - [Home Services](/category/home-services/) - [Water Treatment](/minnesota/water-softener/) - [Roofing](/minnesota/roofing/) - [Concrete](/minnesota/concrete/) - [Heating and Cooling](/minnesota/hvac/) - [Electrical](/minnesota/electrical/) - [Garage Doors](/minnesota/garage-doors/) - [Alabama](/alabama/sod/) - [Alaska](/alaska/sod/) - [Arizona](/arizona/sod/) - [Arkansas](/arkansas/sod/) - [California](/california/sod/) - [Colorado](/colorado/sod/) - [Connecticut](/connecticut/sod/) - [Delaware](/delaware/sod/) - [District of Columbia](/district-of-columbia/sod/) - [Florida](/florida/sod/) - [Georgia](/georgia/sod/) - [Hawaii](/hawaii/sod/) - [Idaho](/idaho/sod/) - [Illinois](/illinois/sod/) - [Indiana](/indiana/sod/) - [Iowa](/iowa/sod/) - [Kansas](/kansas/sod/) - [Kentucky](/kentucky/sod/) - [Louisiana](/louisiana/sod/) - [Maine](/maine/sod/) - [Maryland](/maryland/sod/) - [Massachusetts](/massachusetts/sod/) - [Michigan](/michigan/sod/) - [Minnesota](/minnesota/sod/) - [Mississippi](/mississippi/sod/) - [Missouri](/missouri/sod/) - [Montana](/montana/sod/) - [Nebraska](/nebraska/sod/) - [Nevada](/nevada/sod/) - [New Hampshire](/new-hampshire/sod/) - [New Jersey](/new-jersey/sod/) - [New Mexico](/new-mexico/sod/) - [New York](/new-york/sod/) - [North Carolina](/north-carolina/sod/) - [North Dakota](/north-dakota/sod/) - [Ohio](/ohio/sod/) - [Oklahoma](/oklahoma/sod/) - [Oregon](/oregon/sod/) - [Pennsylvania](/pennsylvania/sod/) - [Rhode Island](/rhode-island/sod/) - [South Carolina](/south-carolina/sod/) - [South Dakota](/south-dakota/sod/) - [Tennessee](/tennessee/sod/) - [Texas](/texas/sod/) - [Utah](/utah/sod/) - [Vermont](/vermont/sod/) - [Virginia](/virginia/sod/) - [Washington](/washington/sod/) - [West Virginia](/west-virginia/sod/) - [Wisconsin](/wisconsin/sod/) - [Wyoming](/wyoming/sod/) - [Ontario](/ontario/sod/) - [Quebec](/quebec/sod/) - [British Columbia](/british-columbia/sod/) - [Alberta](/alberta/sod/) - [Saskatchewan](/saskatchewan/sod/) - [Manitoba](/manitoba/sod/) - [Nova Scotia](/nova-scotia/sod/) - [New Brunswick](/new-brunswick/sod/) - [Newfoundland and Labrador](/newfoundland-and-labrador/sod/) - [Prince Edward Island](/prince-edward-island/sod/) - [Bloomington](/bloomington/) - [Duluth](/duluth/) - [Minneapolis](/minneapolis/) - [St. Paul](/st-paul/) --- These are planning ranges drawn from public price data and market research.
