This is one of the Craziest Garden Disaster Restorations I've Ever Done!!!

Well, have I got a good one for you today. This has to be one of the worst garden cleanups I've ever done on my channel. I actually posted an ad on Facebook for free cleanups and this was one of the places that came through. You are probably looking at the front and thinking that it's not that bad, but wait until you see the back section, it is absolute yard chaos. Just the amount of rubbish is insane and getting close to hoarder status. Ok, so the owner of this property suffers from some physical ailments and has previously had some other issues in her life and the yard, unfortunately, has suffered badly. This where I have stepped in to do a free yard restoration and help the homeowner get back on her feet. All up, I spent 14 hours on the front, with 4 trips to the landfill. I also separated anything useful and took it to the Recovery Shop to be recycled. I hope that you all enjoy the episode and see you all on the next one! This is part 1 of 3.

FAQ's:

Q: Where are you located?
A: I am from Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 🦘.

Q: Do you worry about snakes?
A: I have never even seen a snake in over 5 years on the job.

Q: Which equipment do you use?
A: Mostly STIHL power equipment (battery and petrol) and commercial Honda self-propelled mowers.

Q: How much do the jobs cost?
A: Sorry, I prefer not to talk about costs.

Q: Why don't you use tarps instead of bins?
A: Tarps are too difficult to move through small spaces and lift into the trailer. The same for wheelbarrows, they are only good for unloading the trailer!

Q: Why are the hot water cylinders outside?
A: I would say it's because Australia had a temperate to tropical climate, and therefore it doesn't matter that much if they are outdoors. To me, though, it seems a bit inefficient to have them outside in Tasmania with a temperate climate (coldish for 3 - 4 months per year). But that is industry standard down here 🤷‍♂️

Q: Why are you cutting so close to your employee!
A: I'm not cutting too close to my workers, they are standing too close to where I am working. All of my workers have been told numerous times about standing too close to the tools and about the hazards involved.

Q: Why do your workers do all the lifting and carrying?
A: Basically, they are employed to carry things and I pay them well, to do the job required.

Q: You work so well together, how do you do it?
A: That's the magic of editing. My workers are basically given instructions on what to do, I just edit it all out, so the videos look seamless!

Q: Why don't you have help?
A: I've had many problems with employees in the past, so now I work alone.

Q: Why don't you have a ride-on mower?
A: Well, there are a few reasons.
1. I don't have the right trailer for a ride on, considering I always take away the green waste.
2. I don't have anywhere to store it, as my shed is too small.
3. A lot of the properties we do have fences and gates, so you can't actually get a ride-on on to the properties.
4. I don't do enough big jobs to justify spending 15k AUD on a stander, but it would be nice to have one!
5. I will get one as soon as my transport and storage problems are solved.

Q: What types of ladders do you use?
A: The large one is a Gorilla Adjustable Platform 150kg and the small one is a Gorilla Mighty 19. They are both adjustable.

Q: Who/what is Jim's Mowing?
A: Jim's Mowing is a franchise business. The Jim's Group is the biggest home services franchise in Australia.

Q: Why do you have 2 channels that seem to be the same?
A: Quick Cuts (my original channel) has music in the background. Quick Cuts V2 is for those that like just machine noise, and it doesn't have music.

George, you are the best transformation garden landscaper on YouTube. I have watched them all at one time or another. Your hard work, skill and attention to detail cannot be matched by anyone. Never any drama, or attention grabbing sob stories. Just beautiful work and solutions to overwhelming and often times rubbish filled properties.

[thehook]

Unbelievable. I can understand that someone who can't physically do yard work but I just don't understand the amount of trash. George, you are top top shelf, sir.

[johnrava]

You need a medal for this one George! God bless you.

[franknstein]

125, 000 subscribers are really not enough for the content of your videos, the quality of your work and your achievements. Your unique selling point, the music, also makes this channel unique. Many greetings from Germany 🥸

[RoyalTruth]

Can wait for part two! Folks spread the word on George’s channel! The goal should be to get him to 200l subscribers this year! He brings such joy to his community! Great work George!! You’re a blessing!

That “Lily” out front is actually a bird of paradise, it looks to me.❤

George, I'm up at 1am. Saturday, and your video was already waiting! When I saw the rubbish, my mouth just dropped open! Even the van in front is full of garbage! That was years of neglect! I know when you get done with this yard, it's going to be outstanding! Take care!

[tammyrouse]

First George you did a wonderful thing for this lady and as always to a perfection. Second this lady has to be a hoarder and I am so proud of her for reaching out of help and letting it all go. George you are a life saver Can't wait for the rest of the yard. God BLess

[bettinafullerton]

If you get that done in a three part video, your a super hero George. That's what I call trashville, no offence to the lady.

[maltbie]

that was a lot of junk, I will bet the neighbors are even happier than the homeowner. Thanks for sharing. Charles

[earthtrimgardens]

Yes! Time for another George video. You think watching someone else do this after I do it 40+ hours a week is the last thing I'd want to do but not when the quality of work is this good. Amazing!

[krg]

Its a wild guess but this yard was this way before any disability happened. Great amazing cleanup for the neighborhood.

[gaetanejones]

Thank you handsome George! Yes, we enjoyed this episode immensely. The triumph of order over chaos is a never-ending source of joy. Your battles with the ivy and rabbit hutch were worthy of a medal. More bare-face shots again next time please!! 🙏 Warm UK greetings to you. 🙋💂💕

[susannajones]

You are a good man to take on a job like this. Thanks for your willingness to help this lady.

[topcat]

Nice of you to put the toadstool upright. That Ford is never going to see a road again. It's got a life sentence. Making the trailer vanish from the front lawn is a neat trick! 🙂👍

[Michele_Williams]

Jaw has dropped to the floor! There was so much work before you even got on the tools 💪💪 Then you uncover windows and make the heat pump viable…SO satisfying to watch that ivy come off 🤪🤯 You’ve truly started to work your magic on this property, and I can’t wait for the next episode! 👏👏👏👏

[darleneturner]

I understand why you work alone. You know what you want to do, and then you execute the job. You are very thorough and precise. I love ❤️ watching your videos for those reasons. You never disappoint. Please keep up your excellent work. You are truly one of a kind 😇. Continue to be safe. Thank you 😊.

[clarkwinters]

May God bless this homeowner and their mind, if the outside is like this I can only imagine what the inside is like 🙏🏽.
You are truly a God sent to help out this family and neighborhood. Even the next door neighbor came out and took several looks at the cleanup. Everyone is rejoicing ❤
I can’t wait to see the finished result. May God continue to bless and keep you always 🙏🏽❤️😊

Saint George!! You've really outdone yourself on this one. Can't wait for the other two parts! This woman has needed help for such a long time. Good on her for reaching out. And, thank you for not saying it's just simply too hard and walking away. You make my heart so happy! 💚💚💚
