    Default Current Jobs List

    Lawn Mowing bUSINESS FOR SALE

    Thought i would start a thread where you could post work that you can't/wont do yourself and make it available to other Indies in need.

    If you dont want your personal details on the web maybe if they are interested your fellow Indi can send you a personal message and you can exchange information that way.

    I'll start the ball rolling.

    Coming into Christmas i wont have time to take on many extra's so if anyone needs work in the following area's send me a personal message with your moblie and i'll send work your way. I would prefer to give it to someone who is struggling/starting out rather than someone who has 5 offsiders and is just looking to expand.

    The work will be in Sth East Melbourne in the Bayside suburbs from Black Rock down to Patterson Lakes and inland a little from Caulfield down to Dandenong. Sometimes get calls for Endeavour Hills and Berwick/Narre Warren as well i don't service those area's so if you need work in those suburbs let me know.

    Maybe down the track you can send work my way when i need it cheers from Scooby .

    OK.....deep breath....I need a quote please.

    For reasons of time and most especially health, my once nice garden has turned into something I am truely ashamed of

    Timmy keeps wanting to give it a shot but just really can't do that level of work anymore and I just don't have the time.

    I cannot look at it or walk through it anymore....I told him I'm getting an Indi in.

    Be warned...it's feral, there is a mountain of weeds and an absolute heap of pruning. I want a garden bed completely removed and turf laid (we may be able to do that if someone pulls the bed out). A few dead plants that didn't survive the dry condition need to come out too.

    Plus rubbish removal.

    I'm in the Croydon/Ringwood area (Vic)...can someone please pm me if you would like to quote (I know I've really sold it as a top job...NOT....but better to be honest up front right )

    I am happy for it to be done whenever, it's not like I need it done yesterday or even this week. If you want to fit it in around your normal run that's OK too....I will even let you come back regularly to maintain it!

    Met a fella today who wants a quote over at Springvale VIC apparently about 250sqm. I'd do it but it's probably going to be a regular so bit far when I haven't got any other regulars out there.

    He runs a panel shop, and presents as a straight up guy. Give me a call or PM me, I promised him I'd get someone to call him this week.

    Maybe..maybe not. You have to pick the right crew. If other companies did that I would not have half my display install work. Not different to subying really.
