Ways to Remove Lawn

1

Manual Removal Method

Manually removing sod can be done with a shovel or a sod cutter.  This is the fastest method, removed sod can be composted, it leaves the majority of soil intact, but it is labor intensive.

2

Sheet Mulching Method

This method covers turf with newspaper or cardboard and layering it with organic matter and mulch.  It doesn't require turf removal, but is the slowest method, about 6 months beginning in the fall.
