Burning waste in a client's garden
Hi All. I have a customer with a large garden and their previous gardener has piled the waste in a large pile away from the house. I am being asked to burn the waste. Is this legal and do you need any permissions or is there anything that should be taken into consideration. Thanks in advance - Tom

Wiebang legacy 56 Pro
Anyone using these commercially? Opinions on reliability, wet grass collection. Warranty issues? They don't have very good reviews on Trustpilot, particularly when it comes to warranty claims.If any forum member has used them for more than a couple of seasons would be grateful of any info. Thanks

HAYTER 56 PRO ISSUES
Asked on forum many times I know - we are using new model Hayter 56 Pro's commercially, on the whole relatively happy but the non height adjustment handles are an issue with multiple operators of different statures, the other issue is build up of grass around gearbox and rear roller in damp conditions to the extent it jams the roller.

This is a first... what would you do?
I have just received a call from a neighbour of a client who we visited today - he says I scuffed his car with the van. I am 100% sure I didnt - there was no radio on in the van, quiet narrow road, the window of the van was open a bit - and I was going walking speed down the road to park - straight in, no reversing. But apparently I was the only van that parked there today - and the scratch wasn't there this morning. What would you be your approach to that???
