Refusing to cleanup Backyard and Transforming front instead | Autumn has arrived!

This job came through, and I was asked to go around and do a quote for the customer. When I was shown a massive patch of blackberries in the backyard, I basically said it wasn't something I was overly keen to do. I did throw a number at the customer, but it was well outside his budget, especially as it was a rental property. I was then shown a pile of green waste at the end of the drive, and we agreed on a price. After that, I then offered to do a full cleanup on the front section at no extra cost. The tenant was super happy with the arrangement and booked me in to complete the work. All up, I spent around 8 hours on this job, including 2 trips to the landfill.

_______________________________________________
FAQ's:
Q: Where are you located?
A: I am from Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 🦘.
Q: Do you worry about snakes?
A: I have never even seen a snake in over 5 years on the job.
Q: Which equipment do you use?
A: Mostly STIHL power equipment (battery and petrol) and commercial Honda self-propelled mowers.
Q: How much do the jobs cost?
A: Sorry, I prefer not to talk about costs.
Q: Why don't you use tarps instead of bins?
A: Tarps are too difficult to move through small spaces and lift into the trailer. The same for wheelbarrows, they are only good for unloading the trailer!
Q: Why are the hot water cylinders outside?
A: I would say it's because Australia had a temperate to tropical climate, and therefore it doesn't matter that much if they are outdoors. To me, though, it seems a bit inefficient to have them outside in Tasmania with a temperate climate (coldish for 3 - 4 months per year). But that is industry standard down here 🤷‍♂️
Q: Why don't you have help?
A: I've had many problems with employees in the past, so now I work alone.
Q: Why don't you have a ride-on mower?
A: Well, there are a few reasons.
1. I don't have the right trailer for a ride on, considering I always take away the green waste.
2. I don't have anywhere to store it, as my shed is too small.
3. A lot of the properties we do have fences and gates, so you can't actually get a ride-on on to the properties.
4. I don't do enough big jobs to justify spending 15k AUD on a stander, but it would be nice to have one!
5. I will get one as soon as my transport and storage problems are solved.
Q: What types of ladders do you use?
A: The large one is a Gorilla Adjustable Platform 150kg and the small one is a Gorilla Mighty 19. They are both adjustable.
Q: Who/what is Jim's Mowing?
A: Jim's Mowing is a franchise business. The Jim's Group is the biggest home services franchise in Australia.
Q: Why do you have 2 channels that seem to be the same?
A: Quick Cuts (my original channel) has music in the background. Quick Cuts V2 is for those that like just machine noise, and it doesn't have music.

I am happy to see you again. George is back in action! Blackberries, I can tell stories about them. Ben and his father (Flawless Cleaning Service) in the UK have their own approach to dealing with blackberries. In England and Germany you can find this plant from... almost everywhere. I will now buy a shredder, special gloves and knives for my brush cutter and tackle the almost 600 square meter, head-high blackberry wall. Many greetings from Germany 🥸

[@prishanireddy689]

Just keep your phone away from the shredder 😮 ❤

The world's best gardener is back! Welcome back George, you were missed! You have spoilt every other so called gardeners out there, if I watch someone else I end up talking to myself with comments like... "well George wouldn't have left that" or "George would've done a much better job"! So I for one am so excited to see you again. I hope you had a lovely holiday!😊

[@sharonsimonic9646]

Hi George, I’ve missed you, hope you rested physically and mentally. You don’t have to be a superhero and take on everything that comes your way. Anything you do is appreciated by your many fans.

[@marlasmitherman799]

Ahhh once again Saturday morning with George!!!

[@stecamu]

Ok guys, George is back. Sit down and ENJOY! So glad to find you here again, mate 😊

[@ANUJA845]

Finally! Delighted to have you back in action George

[@vickicarey1222]

Welcome back George, we missed you. I hope you are doing well and taken time to have some fun time. So please don't burn yourself out. As always you are awesome and do such great work for your community.

[@Checheyigen1]

Oh thank goodness!! Two weeks with no videos and I was worried!! Glad it was a holiday! You deserve it!

[@ollie9619]

Hooray, George, you’re back, hope you enjoyed your break. Another garden for you to work your magic on, you are extremely particular with it and it shows. I watch a lot of lawncarers overseas as well as in Australia; I am very proud of our Australians, they do terrific work. I see some who don’t clear a ppty correctly and think, well George wouldn’t leave it like that! Thanks for all you do, it’s good you are being selective and negotiating which gardens you will do. Compromise is a good thing for both parties. God Bless, from Rosie aka Ollie, Geelong, Victoria ❤👏👍🤗

[@sarahbrewer8945]

I am British but agree with you. Whilst I watch a few USA and English gardening Channels who do a good job too, I have found that the Australian lawncare providers are excellent.

[@cheriecade2333]

I wonder where you took your holiday? Did you go to the mountains, the beaches, or just a staycation? Anyway, it’s so good to have you back! Awesome job 😮as always!

Glad you’re back, George. You were missed. But, glad you had a good rest to recharge. The finished product, as usual, is excellent. Hope your family is well.

Yay! Time to get stuck in again 🤩 What a great return video. Stand your ground on the brambles and let someone else tackle them. You’ve got nothing to prove, and your strength and precision are better used elsewhere! Lovely tidy up for this yard, opened up a lot of space and made it so much easier to maintain! 👍👍👏👏💪💪

[@cindydimery708]

George you do a great job even on the blackberries but I can’t blame you for not doing them. Our summer is about to start in June and we have been getting a lot of rain here in the US. Glad you’re back. 😊💪🏼👏🏻🤩👍

Great job George! Figures, your first job back and the client has blackberries!! I'm so glad you told him no but came up with a trade off!! Unfortunately, the green waste contained blackberries.
