Neil Darby replied to Jason Taylor's discussion Hedge trimming costs

"Less than a days work I would say for 1 person, so £360 sounds high. Although £40 for diisposal sounds low, depending on how much you are taking off. If say going to 6ft that will be quite a bit to take away."

MF Hodgson replied to James King's discussion Can I legally cut a Council Hedge?

"I'd go ahead and cut it and if the council want to complain you can say sorry and suggest they cut it themselves next time. In these situations it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission."

"It'd be mostly for areas up to 2 acres so I don't think I'd need to spend commercial ride on money."

Peter sellers replied to Josh Thompson's discussion Zero Turn Cut & Collect Mower
