Artificial Turf Roll Sizes and Weights
A full roll is 15 x 100 feet and up to 1,400 pounds. Here is the math before you send a half-ton pickup for it.
A standard artificial turf roll is 15 feet wide and up to 100 feet long, about 1,500 square feet. Weight depends on total weight: turf runs roughly 60 to 95 pounds per 100 square feet, so a full 100-foot roll weighs about 900 to 1,400 pounds and needs a forklift on both ends of the trip. Cut lengths scale down proportionally: a 15 x 20 ft piece of mid-tier turf is about 250 pounds, a two-person carry.
Roll dimensions and weights by tier
| Turf tier | Weight per 100 sqft | Full 15x100 ft roll | 15x20 ft cut piece |
|---|---|---|---|
| Light (40-55 oz face) | About 60-70 lbs | About 900-1,050 lbs | About 180-210 lbs |
| Mid (58-70 oz face) | About 70-85 lbs | About 1,050-1,275 lbs | About 210-255 lbs |
| Heavy (75-110 oz face) | About 85-95+ lbs | About 1,275-1,400+ lbs | About 255-285 lbs |
These are working estimates: total weight includes backing, which varies by product, so check the spec sheet for the line you are buying. The rule that never changes: total weight up, roll weight up. The turf weight guide explains total and face weight.
Getting a roll home: transport rules of thumb
A full roll does not go in a pickup bed sideways: it is 15 feet long rolled, so it needs a flatbed, a long trailer, or our delivery truck. Will-call pickups at the Fontana warehouse get forklift loading; plan for a trailer rated for the weight, strapped at both ends. Cut pieces to about 25 feet of length can ride in a full-size bed with the tailgate down and two people to move them. When in doubt, tell us the vehicle when you call and we will tell you if it works, or quote delivery, which across the Inland Empire is often cheaper than a second trip.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a roll of artificial turf weigh?
A full 15 x 100 ft roll weighs about 900 to 1,400 pounds depending on the total weight of the line, roughly 60 to 95 pounds per 100 square feet. Always plan on forklift loading for full rolls.
Will a roll of turf fit in a pickup truck?
A full roll will not: rolled turf is 15 feet long and up to 1,400 pounds. Cut pieces up to about 25 feet of length ride fine in a full-size bed with the tailgate down. Anything bigger needs a trailer, flatbed, or delivery.
How wide is a roll of artificial turf?
15 feet is the industry standard width, and it is what Mighty Turf stocks. Widths like 12 or 13 feet exist at some suppliers but complicate seam math on plans drawn for 15-foot goods.
