Hedge cutting work in Turner's Cross

Hedge cutting is seasonal for a legal reason as well as a practical one: nesting birds restrict when hedges can be cut, and clients often do not know it. It is heavier work than mowing, pays more per visit, and the waste is usually the client’s biggest question.

A city county gives you the mix that is hardest to find elsewhere: enough density to fill a week without long drives, and enough variety that the work does not disappear when one type of client goes quiet. Regular domestic work forms the base, and end-of-tenancy and office contracts sit on top of it.
