They’re everywhere. I know they’re still falling but I probably already have a yard-waste dumpster full. Do you know someone who is reasonably priced who will come deal with this mess for me?
Do you have a lawnmower? Are the leaves on a surface that you can mow over? It really chops ’em up and gets more into the can. I have to empty the bag often, but wth.
OTOH, do you compost? Do your neighbors compost? I’ve been known to run my mower over the neighbors’ parking strips to get leaves for my compost bin. Look around and maybe there’s someone you could ask. Maybe you could mow ’em up together.
Some reports say a leaf blower sends as much particulate matter into the air as 17 cars.
If you post the size of of your yard (small, medium, large, gigantic) and state what you’d pay for raking, teens from Garfield may respond. My son does my neighbor’s leaves every year.
