Sod and tree moving

look into big tex trees they run specials from time to time, and also as far as the grass its gonna run around 85 a pallet

Thanks. I'll look into them

Called them. Waiting on pricing but they were by far the easiest to talk with and upfront of anyone Ive spoken with.

I just noticed it's Crosby. Probably can do cheaper than my last post

There's several sod farms out that way. I pass them all the time going through there. Definitely call around.

Don't have a clue what a pallet would cost, but there's a turf farm very near you. If you come down 2100 to 1960 and turn right and head toward Dayton, Murf's turf farm is on both sides of the road right there where the road goes over the railroad tracks... That's where I'd get my sod. Survival rate for it would be near guaranteed... same geographic area to where your home will be...

Can't help you on the tree, but it sure is a great idea! Love me some live oaks too!

I bought it out of the field for $80 a pallet here. 28 to 30 pallets should get you a much better price with delivery. Watch the cheap places they are full of weeds, hard to tell until it grows then you have a yard full of weeds!

I would be willing to bet the $50/inch is their planting costs, not for the tree itself.

I got quotes from big Tex for trees. A live oak in the 16-20' range is considered Jumbo and is $2k plus $200 to plant. This is a pretty big tree though. An oak in a 36" box, 12-14' tall, is $1500 plus planting.

Anyone have access to a tree spade. I found some 10-12" trunk oaks that the farmer wants to get rid of but he doesn't have the equipment?
