Now what? Fall Cleanup!

Okay, the fall foliage is now history. So, you think you can kick back and relax?  Not a chance, here comes the fall cleanup.

If you have lots of trees then this time of year could be hard work.  So, how do get rid of the leaves?

  • Maybe run over them with a mower
  • Rake
  • Hope wind the will blow them away
  • Or maybe just ignore them

In my case, I do a lot of raking.  Besides getting the leaves up, this gives me a chance to see what is going on with the lawn.

So, I have the leaves all raked up. How do I get rid of them now?  If you live in the village, the village trucks will come by and suck the leaves up; the rest of us are on our own.

Over the years I have tried many different type of contraptions to pull the leaves into the woods.  Over the last two seasons, I decided a garbage can worked best for me because it is deep and the leaves won't fall out.

I want to make as few trips to the woods as I possible so this year I found a way to combine the old garbage can with the wheel barrow.  So, the question is what type of contraption have you used to pull the fallen leaves away?
