I need a variety of land clearing services
Hi, I want somebody who has a high weed mower or a brush cutter to rough cut our half-acre yard. Obviously, the weeds and grass are a bit "high" in places and there are some hard-to-spot tough woody stems in places. If you also have a full-sized pick-up truck or other truck, I might be interested in having you haul away some branches and small fallen tree trunks. There are a few hard-to-see holes/depressions in the front yard (I'm quite sure that the genius workmen who put in water/sewage pipes some years ago caused that). There are a couple of hard-to-see holes in the back yard. I'll point everything out. There aren't any dogs to worry about. There's easy access to our back yard because there's a (now-unused) school behind our back yard. I might stack the fallen branches and other tree wood at the very back of our back yard for easy pick up (unless I decide to cut it all up myself and have the regular recycling crews take it away (my "tax" robber dollars at work!). It's an easy job for somebody who has a high weed mower and/or a brush cutter. I'd do it myself if I had one of those things. I'm not going to abuse my push lawn mower. Just a rough cut will do the trick!!
