If you have been watching my channel lately, you might recognise this property. The last 2 episodes before this were done on the drive around the other side. Basically, the whole place is a shambles, but unfortunately, I won't be able to do a full restoration on this property. I promised myself, for my own sanity, that I wasn't going to tackle blackberries on a large scale. But I really wanted to help out, so I did what I could out the front. I cleared some rubbish, did some pruning, a bit of mowing and just a general tidy up. It's not an overly long episode, but I did what I could to make the homeowners place a bit more livable. All up, I spent around 7 hours on this job, with 3 trips to the landfill included.

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 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

I can understand someone not being able to mow their lawns for one reason or another,but I don’t understand why they use the yard as a tip.
-
I just cringe when I see someone with your talent picking up garbage. But you are not only a MASTER at gardening and lawn care but also a humble man who helps with whatever needs done. Another job WELL DONE!!

It amases me once more.how many trash and rubbish people keep in their gardens,and how very lucky they must be,to have the best man at all t o clean it up,George you are wonderful

Many years ago, I spent several weeks cleaning the fence line for my neighbor who’d just been dumping grass clipping and tree trimmings for years. Bees started making nests and they’re highly allergic to them. (Anaphylaxis). So over a period of weeks, I would clear it into their yard waste bin and my yard waste bin so a trip to the dump wouldn’t be required. I didn’t understand WHY they just wouldn’t put it into yard waste in the first place. They were very grateful and I managed to not get stung. Bless you for the work you do.

You are my favorite one to watch on U-Tube! You are more thorough in your yard clean-up than anyone I have watched; and I watch a lot of different ones. I look forward to seeing every episode you produce! Keep making the world beautiful! We really do like seeing the ugly yards transformed by your wonderful work ethic!❤❤❤😊

The work you’re doing for this home would be at least $3,000.00 in California. You really are donating something of big value.

Hi George Joy from Nottingham UK , do they give community citizens awards in Tasmania you certainly deserve one , amazing to watch .
-
I hope the yard stays in check, but even if not you’ve given back an opportunity to start over. I especially liked the removal of junk and clean up of the chainlink area..so many different uses it can have now! Hope you have a good weekend! 👏👏👍👍
-

Please post the rest of the yard if you do any more. We love seeing your final results - you do such a fantastic job at all your transformations! Sending my appreciations from the Sunshine State and Emerald Coast of Florida!! ☀️

George,thank you for helping out with this disaster. I can only imagine how bad it is. We are only seeing through the pictures,but the way you desribed it,tells me it was more than a disater. Let me salute you,for taking up such mess and turn it into a much better place. Be blessed and thank you again.

This certainly is the garden that keeps on giving. I hope this cleanup is motivation for her to keep the trend moving. Your "It's better to do something than to do nothing at all" are words we all need to live by... and not just in gardens.

Love your work George. Sending respect and admiration from across the ditch ❤ 🇳🇿 ⏩ 🇦🇺 ❤
