Perennial grasses have very deep large roots. Make a very wide cut around the root ball.Have your new location dug up and it should be twice the size. Put some peat moss in the bottom,place the grass in and fill with soil,tamping out all the air. Make sure this is done when it is not sunny or hot as that will help the grass no to go into shock. Keep the roots well watered until the grass takes.
