30 Hour Full Yard Cleanup with Crazy Weed Infestation!!!

You won't believe what I found on this property. I was walking past here on my occasional morning walk and I noticed that the indoor plants were also the outdoor plants!!! It was quite remarkable to see, and the homeowner obviously needed some help, so I knocked on the door and offered my services for free. Initially, nobody was home, so I knocked on the neighbour's door and ended up speaking to an elderly neighbour in another unit. He informed me that people actually do live there, and they are quite nice and neighbourly. Taking that into consideration, I decided to come back later that same day to see if I could catch them. Luckily for me, the second time around, they were home. After a bit of a conversation and me selling the whole free cleanup thing, the owner asked his wife, and we got the nod to go ahead. As you can see, it's in a bad state, and I ended up putting in around 30 hours of work into this job. Originally, it was done over 3 episodes, that you can find below.

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.
