While I take care of the day-to-day, or week-to-week general servicing and cleaning of all my equipment, I rely heavily on many Bundaberg businesses for major servicing, parts and to keep me operational during unexpected breakdowns.
Without them all my wheels would not keep turning and I could not keep working. And I hate letting my valuable Everyone Needs a Pete clients down.
All my servicing gear and spare parts and associated gear for both my ride-ons are provided by RDO Equipment Australia in Bundaberg, which is, of course where my original 42inch cut John Deere was purchased from.
An exceptional, helpful team who always make sure I am back in the seat quick smart.
Taking care of breakdowns, repairs, servicing equipment and spare parts of all our Bushranger, Weibang self-propelled roller mowers and the Massport cylinder mower (plus Bushranger chainsaw and brush cutter!) are the wonderful team at Waldo's Mower Doctor in George Street.
And let’s not forget Harry Harry's Mowers over North. Harry has come to my rescue so many times and got me out of some tight spots. Thank you!
I am always at Northside Produce Agency for everything from w**d solution and insecticides to liquid and granular fertilizer supplies and ingredients for my secret herbs and spices fertilizer! The friendly, helpful team are always happy to help.
The work vehicle and trailer are well maintained by Craig Olive Supa Auto Service, The Bar Automotive, Battery Barn Bundaberg, and The Trailer Shop. There’s always something going wrong so it’s great they have my back.
Green Solutions Wide Bay are my first call for all things bulk - mulch, soil and, of course, green waste disposal.
Wilson’s, and J & R McCracken QLD Pty LTD, are my first calls for all things irrigation and parts. Of course, let’s not forget all the tool shops at Kensington and good old Bunnings!
Thanks too to the helpful team at Totally Workwear in Bundaberg. They provide our workshirts, embroidery and trousers.
Probably a little unusual, but a massive shout out also to Casa Loco in Alexander St over East – not only do they make a killer coffee but also supply me with coffee grinds – one of my secret fertilizer ingredients!
Casa Loca roasts their own beans on site so if you haven’t already, pop in and grab a brew and watch the action. They also make spirits and provide other goodies there. The joint really gets jumpin’ so go check them out.
These companies go the extra mile to keep Everyone Needs A Pete business up and running.
I give a huge thank you to all these businesses who keep looking after us.
From 2022 to today.
