As winter approaches and leaves fall to the ground, we’re approached with the daunting task of cleaning up after our leafless trees. After all, who wants a lawn covered in snow and leaves? It’s not very attractive and would be pretty difficult to get the Christmas lawn ornaments to stay up. In addition, these fallen leaves can potentially damage lawns and can also be dangerous when wet and slippery.

Fortunately, there’s a simpler way to pile and gather leaves. The two step process of raking or blowing leaves into a pile, and then gathering them up has become one.  Garden leaf blowers that include the vacuum feature have made it possible to do so. You no longer have to shovel heaping piles of leaves and debris into sacks or bins, which many know can take forever and a day.

Garden leaf vacuums have many functional features that make cleaning up leaves and debris beneficial in more ways than one. First of all, the blowers already have an attached bag to it where the leaves would go once sucked up into the tube. In addition, some models have an automatic shredder within the unit that enables you to shred the leaves into tiny little pieces, which you can later use as mulch or compost mixture. It also compresses the size of the leaves letting you gather more leaves in the bag in a single round.

Most Garden leaf vacuums can easily be switched from blow mode to vacuum mode in just a touch of a button. You can either blow all the leaves into one area before you vacuum them up, or simply suck leaves up as you go.

Another added bonus to the leaf blower/vacuum is a detachable nozzle with wheels attached to it. This can be fitted to the end of the vac. It makes maneuvering and transporting easier for the carrier when it comes to moving large loads of collected leaves and debris. This is a great feature, especially for those who have back problems or aren’t able to carry heavy loads for long periods of time.

There are two types of garden leaf vacuums that are available; petrol and electric. While petrol vacs are usually more expensive, they are more powerful and your range of mobility is greater. They are also preferable for bigger jobs and larger yards.  On the other hand, electric vacs are much more affordable, easier to handle and quieter in comparison. The only thing is, you would have to be connected to an extension cord while using the leaf blower vac, which can limit your overall maneuverability.

Regardless of which type or model you choose, you’ll still tremendously benefit from the Garden leaf vacuum. It’s definitely a device every homeowner, gardener, or lawn care professional should have in their tool shed. Yard work and clean up will soon be a breeze, giving you more free time to do the things that really matter; like finishing up the rest of your “honey-do” list.
