Balcony planter box garden maintenance

$600

Paradise Point QLD, Australia

4th Feb 2026

Plant maintenance required on a 1st floor balcony planter box Specifically: • Remove 5 or 6 dead species (2 pig faces and 3 to 4 Cousin It plants) (see picture in red) • Install 6 x 200m replacement species • Note: all plants to be installed with water crystals, organic fertiliser and fresh potting mix • General tip-pruning of the rosemary to tidy and encourage new growth • Add organic fertiliser across the entire planter box section • Removing old flowers, any dead parts of the Cousin It’s, etc Notes: • Plants, fertiliser and water crystals will be SUPPLIED, however you’ll need a ute (or similar) to pick these up from a local garden centre (pre paid ready for pick up) • Access to the balcony planter is from the driveway which is on a slight decline. Ideally you’ll have access to a 1 man scissor lift or are comfortable on a ladder with someone holding it at the base I would suspect • Waste can be disposed on site, green bin available • There are irrigation lines in the garden bed so care will need to be taken when removing and planting species not to damage these Type of gardening: Other Size of garden: Under 50m² Has green waste bin: Yes

Move Soil into Large Planter Boxes (Wheelbarrow Job)

$150

Corinda QLD, Australia

26th Oct 2025

Looking for one or two people to help move soil from a pile into large planter boxes using a wheelbarrow. It’s straightforward garden work — just moving and tipping soil neatly. Down the side, across the pool deck and into the planters. Details: • Soil pile is delivered and ready to go • We have one wheelbarrow on site. • Please bring a spade, gloves if needed and if you’re a team of two, an extra barrow would make things quicker. • 3 large planter boxes to fill. • Estimated time: about 2 hours for one person (less if two people). Corinda 4075 Today if possible. Later in the day would be cooler. $150 Ideal for someone who’s physically capable, enjoys outdoor work, and takes care not to spill soil around garden edges.

Samuel worked well and got the job done! Will book again.
