We’ve had hundreds of you tell us just what makes your neighbour ‘awesome’ with some amazing stories. Do you have an awesome neighbour you haven’t told us about?

It could be a neighbour who donates time to a sports team in your neighbourhood or someone who brings your bins up the driveway every week. Maybe they’re just really unique; the neighbour who drives that bright pink car or skateboards with the kids to school each day.

Tell us why your neighbour is awesome and you could win one of four $250 Prezzy® cards (plus one for your Awesome Neighbour).

The hedge is Macrocarpa 50m long, 2m high and 500mm wide.
Please do not suggest Graeme Page from Dillons Point Rd. He was booked in this morning for 10am and I was 1 minute late and he didn’t want to wait and left at 10am. I waited… View more
Hi, can anyone recommend someone who trims medium sized hedges.
The hedge is Macrocarpa 50m long, 2m high and 500mm wide.
Please do not suggest Graeme Page from Dillons Point Rd. He was booked in this morning for 10am and I was 1 minute late and he didn’t want to wait and left at 10am. I waited for 10min then rang him to ask where he was and he said at home sitting in front of a fan. I apologised for being 1 min late and he hung up on me. Not a nice way to start the day :-(
Life is too short to be so impatient. Would love the job done, so look forward to a recommendation.
