make some cash by trimming trees around your neighborhood

Go and get yourself a nice chainsaw and polesaw from your local pawnshop. A good homelite 18 inch should run you about 60 bucks. A good remington electric polesaw should cost about 50 bucks. Dig some loppers out of your garage and you are in business.. Put a ladder in the back of your pickup truck and ride around the more affluent areas of your town. Look for people doing yard work in their yards.When you approach them, tell them that you are doing some treework in the neighborhood and that you manicure trees, raise the canopy, do tree removals, cut all the sucker limbs off and haul everything away when your finished. You can give them a bid while you are there if they have any work to do. You want give a bid that is not too low or too high. I try to estimate how long it will take me to do the work and bid the job at about 60 dollars per hour. Stay away from dangerous trees unless you have experience. You can make some good cash right down the street if you have a little sales skills. Also keep in mind of where you are going to dump the trimmings. Look in the phone book for a mulching yard that will take the stuff off your hands. Who says money don't grow on trees? Good luck.
