G'Day guys,

I'm hoping someone here can help. See, I've got a front and a back yard (wild, right?) and a number of trees around the place. So it's all covered in leaves and all the usual stuff. But. My shoulders are bung and I can't really do anything about it myself.

For the last couple years I've made attempts at getting someone out to do the job of cleaning the place up for me. The block isn't huge, but it's still a hefty job. I know that and I'm willing to pay accordingly, accommodate with them where required. I know it's going to be a handful of tip runs, so I'm willing to organise a skip for the job.

The thing is ... I can't get anybody out to either do the job or finish the job. Both Jims and VIP have bailed on the job after a day and I'm having a hell of a time getting anyone else out. Had someone from one mob call in, take photos and write things down. Said he'd need to find someone else to help him with it and he'll give me a quote. It's been over a month, and I'm not sure he's going to get back to me still.

So my question is, who the bloody hell do I need to shag to get my yard cleaned? Failing that, who can I pay to do it? All of the places I've been able to find are either too small for the job, a Jim's/VIP company, a commercial place that doesn't seem interested, or they don't do that kind of thing.

I know that coming up to the holiday period I'm unlikely to get someone to do the job now. It would be nice, but I'm realistic about it. As long as it gets done, that's all I need.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
