[davis45]

Great set-up. Very nice, any pics of your work?

[DSLND]

Very nice equipment!

What kind of mowers do you run?

Also, what's the color of that enclsoed trailer called?

Thanks!

-Mitch-

[srl28]

Its a US Cargo trailer...I think Pewter Metalllic, could be wrong.. Got some work pics but not on the computer. Dont do much maintenance but I have Scags and Encores. Not really pictured is my 2005 Ford 350 pickup. Also got 2 more trucks coming for spring. Thanks for the nice comments!

[Lynden-Jeff]

Hey,

Nice setup, how did you handle all the rivets when you got your enclosed vyniled?

Cheers
Jeff

[deere615]

Nice equipment, That is a mean leaf loader!

[Petr51488]

Where in Jersey are you from?

[srl28]

Im in Sparta NJ, Sussex County

The place that does my lettering is just great and they use a little round tool to press the vinyl right over the rivets and seal it on. Works excellent and just looks great!

Yea love the leaf loader! works wonders, pain to back up tho cause u cant see it but its great, need another one! Thanks everyone

[Lawn Enforcer]

Sweet equipment! What kind of bed is on the Freightliner?

[srl28]

Thanks! The bed is a 12ft Grain/landscape/mulch body with 2 swing out doors in the back and 42" sides. Best body IMO for mulch and brush and leaves. Actually holds stone and soil very well as well.

[TC LAWNCARE]

I Saw Your Kubota On The Trailer & Was Wondering What Size It Is. Also What Kind Of Work You Mostly Use It For. I Have A Kubota B7100 And Am Looking Into Getting A B2400hsd.

[DBL]

nice stuff you got there especially that freightliner

[J&R Landscaping]

Nice equipment! Thats a freighliner FL50 right? Also, what brand is the leaf loader and where did you get it from?

[srl28]

Got the leaf loader used actually. It is an ODB (old dominion brush company). They make the leaf vacs for almost every municipality that uses one.

Yea its a Fl50 with a CAT 3126 in it. Great truck great engine, cant say enough good things about either one!! Very Happy with it

The Kubota is a b7800, 30hp hydrostatic trans, quick attach for the bucket and mid and rear pto. May sell it, pm me with an offer, need to get something larger. has about 50 hours on it!! We use it, and another similar machine for seeding and grading jobs, mulch, etc...

[LindblomRJ]

Nice setup.

[TC LAWNCARE]

I Found A 98 B2400hsd W/bucket & 60" Mower For $8500. Powerco In Clinton. (10 Mins. From My Home) Thought That Was A Pretty Good Deal. I Use My B7100 For Brush Mowing And Mulch,stone Etc. Also. By The Way, My Mother In Law Lives On West Mountain Road In Sparta. I Used To Maintain Their Prop While They Were In Florida.

[srl28]

Ha really? Ha we have a few places on Wst Mtn and 2 of my guys live there as well. That seems like an ok price but how many hours are on it? I was lookin around 15 or so for this with 50 hrs on it.

Thanks everyone! for the compliments

[TC LAWNCARE]

Sure Doesn' T Have 50 But I Can Live With 1800. Kubota's Live Forever.

[srl28]

True, this is my 2nd and its been great! 1800 isnt too bad, sounds like a homeowners machine too, having a mid mount mower so good luck with it, sounds good

Whichever one you would want to hire me for is the Freightliner a CDL or no? cuz I do have experience doing delivery's with Mason dumps

[srl28]

Nope one is 18k the other is just under cdl at 25950. Need a driver for one pretty bad so that would certainly work out. Need someone with a clean clear license who isnt a jerk with the trucks, drives and operates well, trustworthy and careful. Who have you worked for before?

I am your man then Well I will be honest with you I have only ever had 1 accident and it was deemed NOT my fault a Tractor Trailor turned his cab into my Directv Van and the Piscataway Police Department said it wasnt my fault that the other driver was at fault that was a year ago and that was the only accident I have had my main dump truck driving experience was when I was working a Roy Bischoff in Stillwater I was delievering masonry supplies and horse feed in the mason dump and I DO NOT beat on other peoples equipment I treat it as if its my own and evn with the Directv Van and the mason Dump I would do normal fluid check ups and etc so I am very trustworthy and have the clean License

[J&R Landscaping]

Got the leaf loader used actually. It is an ODB (old dominion brush company). They make the leaf vacs for almost every municipality that uses one.

Thanks for the info! I went on to their website and got some more details. Saw that it was a belt driven unit and was curious, under heavy loads of wet leaves, do the belts ever slip on them? Have you had to adjust them at all? Any comments on its performance?

[srl28]

Nope, never adjusted them at all, great lubrication points on the machine, zerks all over the place, easy to get to everything. Hour meter reminds you of maintenance intervals never bogs down really at all. only negative and its really our fault is how when the intake hose wraps around the machine in "transport mode" it develops kinks and after a while of use, these kinks help develop clogs. Just gotta stretch the tube out and the sheer suction of the machine clears the clogs. Never had a single problem with the machine its great!

[BCFLawnLandscape]

Pics of one of our trucks and trailers, and some stripes!

[srl28]

Looks nice from what I can see, pics are kinda small
