Our Story
Poyntz: Where Tradition meets innovation.
Founded in 1993, we have worked to reimagine how sod farming is done. We recognized a gap in the industry that needed to be filled. Farmers needed an efficient, secure, and custom-built solution to load sod onto flatbed trucks.
That’s when our Covered Wagon™ solution was born. Our Covered Wagon™, an industry-first, is designed to meet the needs of each sod farmer we work with. We believe in customization, understanding that every farm, every field, and every farmer has their own unique set of requirements.

Founders and owners Philip and Penny Poyntz took the initial concept for the Covered Wagon™ to market back in 2003 after he determined there had to be a better way to load turf grass
He was right—and the growth of the business across North America and internationally has proven the need for this solution.
