    Gday,

    Tenders are mainly advertised in local paper etc. Most tenders come up end of financial year. Best way to find out is get in contact with local council, schools etc and ask them when they put work out for tender.

    I've placed expresions of intrest in for 4 tenders with local council here and recevied the work for 2 and also bagged 2 other council payrole jobs. Mainly mowing around large distributers near Pacific H'way and surounding areas, small park in my town and a cemetry.

    Yeah theres normally stacks of them in our Saturday paper, councils and government etc. I don't ever apply for any I just read them for interests sake, still waiting for the one that needs a slack arse loafer who charges twice what their worth to do bugger all, all day long, then I'd probably chuck a bid in on that one

    Good point! damit , why didn't I think of that! I just assumed the council was penny pinching, which there brilliant at! Might think about them then if it narrows the field a little. Good one Russ!
