I DID MUCH MORE Than the Owner of this Overgrown Yard ASKED For

I arrived at the next customer, who on the phone asked me to cut a hedge of Ivy about 20m long, as there were complaints from the City Department that the hedge interferes with people walking on the sidewalk, but as in my opinion it was not very overgrown and most likely complained one of the neighbors. He wanted me to cut the ivy off the side of the sidewalk and that was it.
After talking to the owner I decided to look in the yard and was in a bit of shock as the whole yard was completely overgrown with weeds, the sidewalk, parking lot, the place where there used to be a lawn and even on the side of the main road the whole yard was in weeds and small bushes that had sprouted through the stones.
He said he would like to hire someone in the fall to clean up the yard, but I offered to help him, that for the same price in addition to trimming the hedges I would also clear the yard of weeds and mow the lawn, to which the owner gladly agreed.
First, I started working by clearing the sidewalk of weeds, then I moved to the yard, behind the laurel hedge there was a pile of laurel branches that the owner cut himself from the sidewalk.
I also cleared a large area in front of the house and from the yard side I cut down the tall grass near the garden house on the overgrown lawn, where a large bush of blackberries grew, which was already ripening and I naturally could not resist and decided to try, picking a few pieces.
After that, I mowed the lawn with a lawn mower and collected the mown grass in green bags. Then I raked all the mown weeds into piles and also packed them in bags. I cleared the large area in front of the house of moss with a shovel and chopped down the birch bushes with an axe, then I cleared the sidewalk in the yard with the brush attachment of the trimmer and then blew everything away with the Stihl BR 800. It was already getting on with the evening, so I had to hurry to finish before dark and I started trimming the ivy hedge and the laurel hedge.
The whole job took me a little over 6 hours and a trailer full of green waste!
And this video will have a sequel in October, as the Owner, after work, asked me to come back in the fall and clean up the yard behind the pond near the garden house, as it turns out there used to be a garden there and it's completely overgrown.
I'm afraid to imagine what kind of work I'll have to do.
