WHAT
We are pulling up an artificial turf field in the Tyler Texas area and selling all of it as we install the new field. The turf comes in 15’x40’ rolls for $390.00 or $0.65/sqft. This turf is a 2.5″ inches tall. The sand & rubber infill has been removed. Each roll will have either a white line or white number running down the middle of it. The turf is great for batting cages, high traffic areas, indoor and outdoor gyms, dog runs, paintball, livestock runs, horse stables, etc.

WHERE

Customers can pick up from our staging area in Tyler, Texas. Details of pick up will be sent to the customer.

WHEN

November 18th-December 1st. We will schedule your pick up time when we accept payment (see “How do I reserve my turf? above).

USED TURF FAQs

1. How do I pick it up?

We will load you with a forklift, so please come in a pickup truck or bring a trailer. Straps recommended.

2. How heavy is it?

1lb per square foot or 600 lbs per roll. The rolls are folded then rolled up to 8’x3’x3’ making it easier to move around.

3. How much infill do I need?

We recommend starting without sand/rubber infill. You can always add some later but it’s more difficult to try remove it. You can always add some in if you use it for a while and think it needs more bounce. If you are using the turf for landscaping, then we suggest adding 3-4 lbs of sand per square foot. If you are using for batting cages, start without it. If you think you need to add some weight, add 3-4 lbs per square foot. 

4. How do I cut the turf?

Use a utility knife with the changeable blades. Cut in between the turf stitching rows on the back of the turf. Use a straight edge and cut away from your body…knives are sharp!

5. How do I seam it together?

Pick up 12 inch carpet seaming tape or double sided roofers tape to seam the two pieces together. Make sure the turf fibers are not stuck in the seam. 

6. How do I install it?

Step 1: Excavate existing sod and dirt to allow for 4 inches of backfill.

Step 2. Install a 2”x3” nailer board around the perimeter.

Step 3. Lay landscape fabric and secure with 6” staples. 

Step 4. Back fill with 4” of decomposed granite. Why DG? Because it allows for better drainage then say crushed concrete aka FlexBase

Step 5. Compact whatever material you use in step 4.

Step 6. Layout turf and make cuts. Staple turf to nailer board. 

Step 7. Drop spread sand infill. We used medium grit blasting or frack sand.

Step 8. Groom in using a power broom. Or for DIY purposes, a push broom and rake will work fine.
