  • Newbie looking for advise

    Hi everyone,
    I 'm new and I have alot of questions.
    1) What is a rough estimate should I expect to pay for equipment,mower, trimmer, blower to get started. I'm leaning towards a redmax trimmer, but everything else is up in the air..

    2) Anyone from Hawaii?

    3) This might sound like a dumb question but it would be even dumber if you don't ask any questions. What does LLC stand for?

    4) What are names of equipment that I should look for, and names that I should stay away from.

      look on ebay they sell alot of good stuff. Some new and some used its all up 2 u. Here are some names Stihl, Echo, SHINDAIWA, Maruyama and Red Max. These are good brands that cost money, but if you take care of it they should last. Its real up to you some people will only go with stihl while other go with red max both good brands. Try to get what you can afford.
      EX.
      STIHL BR420C Magnum used 279.00,
      ECHO PB-620 PROFESSIONAL used 289.00
      SHINDAIWA EB-630 used 315.00
      these are all back pack blowers leafblowers

      hope it helps

      Good luck

        What are the Chances that you were In California in the SanBernardino Area around the Years of 1995-1997?
        I'm Not from Hawaii But I know some People from there.
        I'm not sure what LLC means in Hawaii but here it means Limited Liability Corporation.
        I'd stay away from Huffy, Murrey and any walmart brand mowers haha

            Thanks for the replies... No I was not in san bernidno I've never been there. I was just wondering if there were other manuf. that were like a up and comming companies with new products that are going to change the industry. I knew about shindawia, sthil,toro etc... and since I live in Hawaii far away from the new technogies and stuff. Since I will need to get everything new I just wanted to get products that industry standards...
            Thanks for all your help.

              CJM,
              When were you in Hawaii? And which Island ? That was what I estimated.

                I was asking if you were ever in CA because I know a kid with the same last name Nahinu and is first name starts with a K also and thought you might be him. Is that a pretty common name in Hawaii?

                  Hey I've been to CA. in the early 90's, I stayed in long beach, lakewood area. I'm sorry but I'm not to good with the places in CA.. If we did meet I hope it was enjoyable cause I was still in my teens, my mother and step-father were living in lakewood CA.

                      LLC can also stand for Limited Liability Company. Has the liability protection without the corporation headaches. Best for solo guys.
