But how much does playground turf cost?
The short answer is between $3 and $7 per square foot. That does not include shipping or installation costs however.
You’ll find the quality of the playground turf material and the amount of padding or fall protection it offers will significantly impact the cost.
UnPadded Playground Turf

Unpadded playground turf will cost closer to that $3 per square foot range. Keep in mind when shopping for artificial turf that sometimes the price of these products are listed by square foot and sometimes they are listed by linear foot. To get and accurate apples to apples comparison you’ll want to divide the linear foot price by the feet of width. For instance, if you have a 15 foot wide roll of artificial turf sold at $55 dollars per linear foot, the square foot equivalent would be about $3.67 per square foot. If the turf is sold in pre-sized mats, you may also find the pricing to be listed per mat, so you may need to calculate the price per square foot yourself.
