ABANDONED Neighborhood - FIRST Mow In 5 YEARS (TALL Grass: Ventrac 4520)

  • This abandoned real estate development was ENTIRELY cleared for over a hundred houses back in the mid/late 2000's. Now, 15 years later, it has been abandoned back to nature except for the three homes that were built before the developer closed up shop and the front area that the city maintains.
    We help them out by clearing a section of tall grass that desperately needs mowing they have ignored for five years, according to one of the neighbors we talked to. This was mowing tall, thick, dry grass with the Ventrac 4520 and HQ682 Tough Cut deck.
    I started a ‪@ventrac‬ Owner's Group on Facebook, so if you are in the market for one of these machines you can ask any questions you need to and if you are a current owner you can give me some pointers and advice as I learn the ropes of this machine: / 485159326478163

    Only 3 families live out there in the entire town? That's freakin' paradise if you moved there from a big city. Total peace and quiet. I hope I find something like that when I retire.

    As always, great job, Brad! The city should really consider contracting you to do this work. Sometimes developments do fall through and leave issues like this behind, and they really DO need to be regularly serviced. Keep up the fantastic work! Cheers from Texas.

    @just-dl Před 2 lety +25

    Question: isn’t the total mass/volume of combustible material the same as it was? I can see it might be incrementally safer cut than standing. I think pulling it away from the developed properties would be advisable. Hauling it away would obviously be too pricey. A burn pile safely away from the houses could work.

    • @tylerfielder5582
      @tylerfielder5582 Před 2 lety +7

      Less oxygen available to sustain the burn and when laying down it is able to prevent new growth and begin decomposing. I agree though, it needs to be hauled away to prevent the rats/mice/creatures thing he mentioned at the beginning

    I work for a county road dept and one of our jobs is to mow the shoulders and ditches in our right of way and easements. Let me tell you, it is difficult to keep up with everything and a lot gets ignored unfortunately. I don't know about where you work but we are a small shop with only 10 guys and we are are responsible for just under 200 miles of roads. We have 4 boom mowers and 1 shoulder mower and somehow we manage to mow all the roads while still doing other projects, though it can take us all year to mow the roads just once.
