Yeah, shave that shit off. They're not that big, a small one can stick out the trunk of a medium car or back of an SUV. I was kidding about the sod selling - some grasses can't be made into sod anyway. I'd suggest you lightly till and rake the top surface so your sod gets good contact/binding, the freshly shaved soil will not be a good surface. Nothing wrong with fertilizer other than the environmental concerns(if you're talking chemical/crystal stuff) - compost/humus isn't actually "plant food", it's just the absorbent shit that holds the good stuff in place. Plants can't absorb anything bigger than an element or simple compound. It's all "hydro" at some level.It's not real sod. Its some St Augustine with a shitload of weeds mixed in. I'm just looking for an easy way to get rid of the top layer.
