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, including 3 trips to the landfill. This is episode 3 of 11.

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 music.
