      @leehadaway1932 No worries mate 👍 I have some quoting this week and a few paid jobs, but mostly doing tool maintenance, I have a lot of repairs and mowers, plus all machine need a good service before the season stats again. Almost finished tidy the work. It won't take long to set saws up

    With regards to waste. I had a terrible issue where if I left the bags of green waste in the van for more than a day I would be greeted to an awful stench and lots of condensation in the front cab which then resulted in lots of mould growth in the back. I have a brand-new transit custom van and grew tired of cleaning it constantly.
    I eventually resorted to getting a trailer which was the best thing that I ever did and it’s now opened up a lot more opportunities for my business and I would recommend getting one ! 😊

    I’m starting a leafleting blitz (of all the new estates local to me ) starting the second week in February. My business has been on a steady decline for a few years but making a comeback 😂😂

    I am 60 years old, was -4.5 degrees on Friday, still going strong, unlike my Stihl electric strimmer, which packed up in light rain before Christmas.
    Other tips I would suggest is to wear a mask, when cutting ivy above your head in The Summer and dont get your van Signwritten as it just encourages caravan dwellers to break into it

    • @StephenCheeseGardenServices
      @StephenCheeseGardenServices  Місяць тому +1

      Thanks for the advise, the wife agree's about not getting it signwritten.
      Happy New Year

    Thanks for the tour. Does your roof rack have a roller at the back?

    • @StephenCheeseGardenServices
      @StephenCheeseGardenServices  Місяць тому +1

      Yes I need to keep oiling it with WD40 because it gets so wet, and can become stiff to roll
      Very handy bit of kit to have
      Happy new year
      Steve

    • @jasonrose397
      @jasonrose397 Місяць тому +1

      @ yeah don’t want it stiff. I have a henchman tripod ladder and need to make it easier to put on the roof.

    • @StephenCheeseGardenServices
      @StephenCheeseGardenServices  Місяць тому +1

      @jasonrose397 it will be easy with a roller and may be a heavy-duty step to stand on to reach up, i am pleased with mine 😀

    • @StephenCheeseGardenServices
      @StephenCheeseGardenServices  Місяць тому +1

      You can't go wrong with the Hayters Mate , I have been buying only Hayters for 26 years , They are the best. 41's good for quick in out jobs , I use it for two hour mowing job 2 or 3 a day , Does a bang tidy Job , not to heavy for my back , Nice and easy to steer, 💯 Out last the competition 💶good value for money (It will last a very long time!)I am on my 2 nd rear replacement roller , it will go if you hammer the s##t out of like I do mine 🤣(the roller wares away because its plastic , it's not been a big problem , just replace the roller in the winter
      The pro range are the out right best , properly over kill for most people
