Fresh turf to any corner of Sydney
Turf Delivery Across Sydney, Six Days a Week
Whether you’re replacing a backyard in the Hills District, finishing a new home in Western Sydney or landscaping a commercial site on the Northern Beaches, the turf needs to arrive fresh, on the day you planned and as close to the lawn as possible. That’s what our Sydney delivery service is built around.
We grow five varieties on our own farm at Cornwallis and harvest each order to suit its delivery date, so nothing sits in a depot. Our trucks carry forklifts to set pallets down near your work area, then load the empty pallets back on. Every delivery comes with simple soil preparation, laying and watering instructions, and our team can help you choose a variety and confirm quantities before you book.
In short: Arrow Turf is a family-owned turf farm at Cornwallis in the Hawkesbury, delivering homegrown turf across Greater Sydney six days a week. Forklift placement and pallet recovery come with every drop. Cost depends on variety, square metres, distance from the farm, site access and any extras, and orders are cut fresh and usually ready within a day or two.

Sydney-Wide Turf Delivery
Farm-Fresh Turf Delivery for Every Sydney Property
Sydney is a big, varied city, and turf delivery has to work for all of it. A terrace in the Inner West may only have rear-lane access, a family home on the North Shore might sit on a steep driveway, and a new estate in Macarthur could be busy with other trades. On top of that, Sydney’s warm, humid summers mean turf starts losing moisture soon after it’s cut. Homeowners, landscapers, builders, property managers, schools and councils all need a delivery that brings fresh turf, lands it in the right spot and leaves the site clear so laying can start straight away.
We handle every Sydney delivery the same way, whatever the size. You choose a variety, give us your measurements and pick one of six delivery days each week. We harvest your turf on our Hawkesbury farm to suit that date, load it with any extras such as underlay and send it out on a truck carrying its own forklift. The driver places pallets close to the lawn area and collects the empties before leaving. If you need more than delivery, explore our full range of turf services in Sydney.

Sydney Delivery Realities
Summer Heat, Tight Access and Clay Soils: Sydney Delivery Realities
Delivering turf across Sydney means planning for the city’s climate, its streets and its soils. These three conditions shape how we schedule and place every load.
Hot, humid Sydney summers. Turf is a living product, and stacked rolls warm up quickly on hot days. We cut your order to suit the delivery day and keep the trip from the Hawkesbury short, so the turf arrives cool and moist. On summer deliveries, lay early and water each section as you finish it.
Tight streets, lanes and steep driveways. Older suburbs often have narrow streets and rear lanes, while the North Shore and Northern Beaches have plenty of sloping blocks. Give us a heads-up on access at the booking stage so we can pick a safe place for the forklift to unload.
Clay and sandy soils that need preparation. Heavy clay is common in Western Sydney and Macarthur, while coastal areas tend to have sandy soils that dry out fast. Spreading 100 to 150 mm of 80/20 turf underlay before delivery day helps your new lawn root in on either.
Sydney Delivery Costs
How Much Does Turf Delivery Cost in Sydney?
Turf delivery in Sydney is quoted for your order rather than as a set fee. The variety and the square metres you need make up the turf cost, while the distance from our Cornwallis farm to your suburb and how easily the truck can reach your drop point shape the delivery. Underlay and other extras can ride along.
| Price driver | How it affects your cost |
|---|---|
| Turf variety | Kikuyu is the most budget-friendly; soft leaf buffalo and premium couch cost more per m². |
| Order size | Turf is priced per square metre, and larger orders can attract better rates. |
| Delivery location and access | Distance from our farm and how easily the truck can reach your drop point. |
| Extras | Turf underlay, lawn starter fertiliser or water crystals added to your load. |

Greater Sydney Deliveries
Where We Deliver Turf Across Greater Sydney
Every delivery leaves from our family farm at 104 Cornwallis Road, Cornwallis, on the Hawkesbury River near Windsor and Richmond. From there, our trucks cover Greater Sydney, including the Hills District, Western Sydney, the Inner West, the Northern Beaches, the Sutherland Shire and Macarthur, along with the North Shore and the eastern suburbs.
We also deliver beyond the city to the Blue Mountains, Wollongong and the Central Coast. Many Sydney suburbs are roughly 45 minutes to 1.5 hours from the farm by road, a short enough trip for turf cut to suit your delivery day to arrive in good condition. If you’re unsure whether we reach your street, call us on 0490 779 707 and we’ll confirm. Prefer to collect? You can also book a pickup time at the farm.
How Turf Delivery Works for Sydney Customers
Booking a Sydney turf delivery takes only a few minutes online or by phone. These four steps show how your order moves from measuring up to a freshly laid lawn, with the pallets gone before you start watering.
1. Measure and choose: measure your lawn area and choose a variety, or ask us for advice.
2. Book your delivery: call or order online and pick a delivery day.
3. We cut and deliver: your turf is harvested fresh and placed by forklift where you need it.
4. Lay and water: lay the turf on the day it arrives and water it in; we take the pallets away.
Getting Your Sydney Property Ready for Delivery Day
A little preparation before the truck arrives makes laying faster and gives your new lawn a strong start in Sydney conditions.
Get the ground ready early. Remove the old lawn and weeds, level the area and spread turf underlay before delivery day. Laying onto firm, even soil helps the roots take hold quickly.
Choose and clear a drop point. Decide where the pallets should go, such as the driveway or lawn edge, and keep it free of cars, bins and building materials. Flag any rear lanes, locked gates or soggy patches as you place the order.
Have water ready to go. Set up hoses or sprinklers before the turf arrives, then water deeply as each section is laid. Keep watering once or twice a day for about three weeks, especially through Sydney’s hotter months.
Line up help for laying. Fresh turf weighs roughly 15 to 20 kg per square metre, so larger lawns go down faster with extra hands. Plan to lay everything on delivery day.
Frequently Asked Questions About Turf Delivery in Sydney
How does turf delivery in Sydney work with Arrow Turf?
Our turf delivery in Sydney starts with you choosing a variety, quantity and delivery day. We harvest your turf on our Hawkesbury farm to suit that date, send it on a truck with a forklift and place the pallets close to your lawn area. The empty pallets are taken away once your turf is unloaded.
Which Sydney areas do you deliver turf to?
We deliver turf across Greater Sydney, including the Hills District, Western Sydney, the Inner West, the North Shore, the Northern Beaches, the eastern suburbs, the Sutherland Shire and Macarthur. Beyond the city, our trucks head to the Blue Mountains, Wollongong and the Central Coast too. Call us to confirm your suburb.
How many days a week do you deliver turf in Sydney?
We provide turf delivery in Sydney six days a week. That gives you plenty of flexibility to fit your lawn around work, weather and other trades, and to choose a day when you, your landscaper or your builder can lay the turf as soon as it arrives.
How long does it take to get turf from your farm to Sydney?
From Cornwallis, the drive to a typical Sydney suburb takes somewhere between 45 minutes and an hour and a half. Turf is cut to order and is usually ready within a day or two of booking, and we harvest it to suit your delivery day so it arrives fresh.
Where will the pallets be placed on my property?
Our trucks carry forklifts, so pallets can usually be set down close to where you’ll lay, such as the driveway or the edge of the lawn. For rear lanes, steep driveways or soft ground, let us know when booking so we can plan a safe drop point.
Which turf variety suits my Sydney yard?
It depends on sun, shade and use. Kikuyu and Wintergreen couch love full sun and handle wear and dry spells. Sir Walter soft leaf buffalo copes with part shade, Matilda offers finer stems, and Greenlees Park couch gives a dark, very fine finish. Compare them on our turf varieties page or ask about turf installation in Sydney.
Can I add turf underlay to my Sydney delivery?
Yes. Turf underlay, lawn starter fertiliser and water crystals can be added to your turf delivery in Sydney so everything arrives together. An 80/20 underlay spread around 100 to 150 mm deep is a good base on both clay and sandy Sydney soils.
What should I do after my turf is delivered?
Lay the turf on the day it arrives, butting the joins tightly and staggering them. Water deeply as you go, then once or twice a day for roughly three weeks. Wait two to three weeks before the first mow and use a high setting so the new roots aren’t stressed.
