    Having started a new business I needed some inspiration on how to organise my van and this is a massive help, really appreciated

    Enjoyed your van tour. It looks like a well organized setup. I'm in lawn care as well and have a Chevy 2500 Express van and would not want you to see how unorganized it is but I hope to fix that before March 2024 growing season. Now go buy yourself a new rake my friend because that one hanging up has seen better days lol. Mike from Alabama

      Thank you! I purchased a new rake not long after this video was recorded 😅 it was well and truly needed!

    Great video! This has given me some good starting points to organising my van.
    Also don't forget, waste removal can be charged for and is a fantastic way to create more revenue for the same effort.
    Will stay tuned for more vids! Thanks again

      Thanks mate, and waste can definitely be profitable, I charge per tonne bag when I do remove waste. The charge will cover waste disposal, fuel and money for my time. I just find most of the gardens I’m in don’t need waste removed, which is why I’ve gone with a slightly smaller van 🙂
      I think if waste removal was a bigger part of what I did, I’d of gone for a slightly bigger van, or add a trailer to this one 🙂

    Very good 👍. How one's van is set up or organised is an exteralisation of one's mindset. Order always saves time. Commendable. Jim from J.S.G.S N.IRELAND.

    Excellent van setup my friend! I have a Citroën nemo and I would love a setup like this!! Unfortunately I live in SW France and its hot down so the van doubles up as a carrier for our 2 labradoodles as we put them in the back when they are soggy lol! I am looking for some kind of lightweight frame so I can remove it easily when needed! Go in peace my friend and again, very informative video..... Dave de Montesquiou :)

    A really well thought out setup, Intresting to see another husquvarna battery equipment user. I really rate the husquvarna kit and find it holds up and performs well.
    I recommend the husquvarna battery blower, so mutch easier than a fuel one and no noise for clients working from home.
    I think I spotted some tobisho curved shears in your bag, absolutely sublime to use, and so light and sharp.

    Morning mate, how have you got on with the Toyota? I do prefer the Japanese vehicles but I’m aware they are more expensive to repair. I’m planning to get a LWB van this year either Toyota like yourself or Transit Custom…

      @ExcelsisGardens  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey mate! Got on really well so far, but only had it a year, and was brought with only 13,000 miles on the clock and in very good condition, so also early days at the moment 🙂 but lovely to drive and very good on fuel 👌

    small van like that will only restrict you. mwb and trailer is the ultimate set up. not this

    • @ExcelsisGardens
      @ExcelsisGardens  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Two years in and no restrictions so far. Ample of space for the machinery I use and waste (if required) too 🙂 all depends on what you do, if I did lawns and lawn care then this would be too small for me 🙂
