I was driving around looking for a yard to clean up when I saw this property and noticed a pile of junk in the backyard. Believe it or not, I'd already visited 2 other properties and the residents said no to a free cleanup. Sometimes it just amazes me when people say no to a free Transformation!
After seeing the tenant about to leave in his drive, I walked up and offered my services, and he also initially refused as well. After a bit of fast talking, I managed to convince him that it was a good idea to get the job done, and he would be amazed. Let me tell you, his wife was amazed and truly thankful to finally have a nice yard to look at and for a safe area for their son to play. All up, I spent around 13 hours on this job, including 4 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 musi

    My dad worked nights for 21 years and never ever were we living in a total mess like that, what the heck does it take to pick up the rubbish, it's disgusting how people live, lazy and totally blind to the mess they are living in 😮

    Why would anyone refuse a free cleanup, especially by you 🤯 They don't know what they are missing. They're loss. Hi George 🤗
  • @rosaochoa9539
    WELL DONE😊Another wonderful transformation . When George knocks on your door , you've just won the lottery and we know that it's going to be a good video😂.You know what's amazing your edits , your cuts, your positioning of cameras , the amount of work it takes to achieve this IS SO HARD.😢 Thanks😊
  • I love your channel and flawless cleaning, your channels are the only ones that cleans up all the debris and lawn clippings, you are amazing
  • Who wouldn't want a nice garden for their children to play in? Amazing. But you do a great job and provide a great service to people in need (or to people who need a push in the right direction) Love what you do - its a Saturday morning treat to watch your videos over some coffee (UK)
  • Не понимаю почему люди отказываются от бесплатной уборки???? Да они много потеряли.... Джордж ты профессионально выполняешь свою работу, твой труд невозможно оценить, сразу видно насколько сильно ты любишь свою работу. Ты молодец Джордж, самый лучший на ютуб, единственный кто выполняет свою работу идеально. Миллион 👍 👍 👍 👍 Спасибо за видео и за твою невероятно тяжёлую работу 🫶 😉. Музыка 🎶 🎶 🎶 супер. С уважением Елена 🤗🙋😘

    You always make a junkyard into a beautiful garden George 👍
  • @eveb446
    George: Nobody does it better than you. What a beautiful transformation you did on this property.
  • @alicelim9835
    Like the way you organized clearing the garbage, trashes. Then section by section cut the unwanted branches, trees, trimmimg, lastly cut the grass. Neatness, looks good! All for free service, thumbs up!!!!
  • Don't make excuses for them. They just like to live in the dirt.
  • What an amazing job you did! You even cut stumps down when most people i watch leave them. You work so hard and I'm glad you tell us what the plants are.
  • @brianpatten
    We used to live in a place where all the leaves from one street would blow into our back yard and pile up by our door! I bet these folks truly appreciated your hard work. Keep it up, George. We all love these videos!
  • I hope the tenants take their junk to the tip from now on, instead of dumping it in the backyard again. Another awesome job you've done there George....The best in the business ❤️
  • Loved that you helped a hard working family new to Australia. Your a great example of a caring Aussie. Excellent job George 🎉 ❤ from Queensland
  • @AD-hs2bq
    Wow! They have a gorgeous view from their deck and you opened it up for them. And another blackberry tangle gone. Their vista is so calming now. Lovely. You are so generous.
  • @nmp6338
    Such a lovely job. Now, it’s a tidy yard the tenants can enjoy and maintain. Without all that distracting garbage and trash, they can really appreciate that gorgeous view. Being an immigrant is not an excuse for untidiness. George, I love your transformations. Your hard work and attention to detail is exemplary.
  • You know some people don't know how to receive blessings, fear, or pride. But to each of it's own kind for their reasons. George, you did a very outstanding job. Thanks for not giving up with the man. A blessed has been done, and for you and your hard work, a blessing is coming to you. Thanks for sharing this awesome transformation video 😊
