    probably around the $500-600 mark depending if there was rubbish in there or not if there was i would probably walk if not i would hit it with the Victa super 600 3 steps and normal gate access not a problem
    Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
    And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you

    Probably about what Cranbourne said IF I can get access to a 36 inch gate for thw small ztr. If not get in my car and drive away - fast
    lol... your mixing up posts haha

    Nope. no access John... I reckon i would just get the rover up the 3 steps also.

    I quoted $700 and looking back now... i'm glad i didn't get the job. I reckon it would have been more than a full day job (possibly 2 days).

    It was the worst i have seen for a residential block... those weeds are around 6 1/2 foot high!

    Simmo.

    Hell, is that a back yard? I thought $550 was a bit too much at first, but I thought it was a vacant block just needing a slash!
    How do people live with that?
    You could go back in a quiet time in winter and offer a brush cut for a couple hundred. Not clean up etc, just a slash!

    $550 is a good quote, pity your in NSW, and pity you didn't get the quote, there's a Deutscher H26 self propelled 26 inch for sale in Vic $450, pay for itself in 1 day and left over lunch money. But you know what i'm getting at. That's how i got my slasher

    the first is one ive been doing for a while, its the friend of another regular, the lawn is the second one, like at the top of the photo?

    the second and third photos are the "micro" one i got off my internet marketing, which paid all my net costs for 3 yrs, (in the first year of having the customer etc) - with a before and after (some leaves didnt pick up right as it was raining all morning and she didnt want to wait - lol, the after is the "second photo" and the before is the 3rd photo - dang internet switched them all round, lol


    both are like 5 to 10 mins work, nice customers both (single ladies), both in my target suburb - both front yards only

    yeah, its great that i took my camera along the other day and took a few shots

    now ive posted actual photos of lawns ive done, i can regard myself as a true lawnie, and make statements on the forum completely unconnected to actually being able to DO the job of mowing.




    worms, simmo, where are the worms?
