Looking for Recommendations on Affordable, Reliable Landscaping Tools
Hi everyone! I’m fairly new to landscaping started this year, and I’m looking for some advice from the pros who’ve been doing this a lot longer than I have. Right now, I handle everything from gutter cleanings and hedge trimmings (boxwoods, hedges, leaf removal) to weed eating and general yard work. I’m working with basic tools and a lot of heart and passion. Most of the money I earn goes right back into the business, so I don’t have top-tier equipment yet. I’m hoping to get recommendations on reliable, affordable leaf blowers, trimmers, hedge clippers, and any other tools or gear that make jobs easier and more efficient. I’m still researching and plan to upgrade one piece at a time as I can afford it. Any tips or advice would mean a lot thank you all in advance!12Views1like3CommentsSales Marketing

Hey all, just wondering if this is something others have run into. A few of our clients have been talking about how they handle long-term storage of job photos and documents, especially when staff leave, or when they want to organize files outside of Jobber. Some mentioned wanting to move things to Google Drive or DropBox automatically, but I’m not sure how common that need really is. Just curious, have you or your team thought about this? Is keeping a backup of Jobber media files part of your process, or not really a concern? Appreciate any thoughts! Josh72Views0likes0CommentsBuilding a Strong Team for Long-Term Growth”
I’ve learned that when it comes to hiring, it’s not just about finding people who can do the job — it’s about finding people who believe in the vision of your business. Skills can be taught, but work ethic and character is hard to find. Treat your team with respect, communicate clearly, and create an environment where they feel valued. The right people will help grow your business — the wrong people will slow it down. It all starts with leadership and setting the right example.”*39Views1like0CommentsBuy a used truck now or wait until we can afford a new one?
We are a small Junk Removal company operating with a single truck. Our current dilemma is whether we should purchase a used truck now and put the extra money into repairs, or to wait a bit longer until we can afford a new truck that won't need repairs right off the lot. There's pros and cons to both options and we just can't decide.1.3KViews3likes14CommentsCan Door-to-Door Selling work for Junk Removal?
We are a small Junk Removal company based in the DMV area. Occasionally, during down time, we send guys out to knock doors with flyers with the goal of booking and completing a job on the spot or scheduling a job for the future. We have had little to no success with this method. Is it our sales skills/technique/pitch or more so the work that we are trying to offer that makes this method ineffective for us?311Views1like3Comments
