The autumn leaf fall is starting to get into gear which for householders is yet another job for the gardener.

But imagine of you have a large garden or small estate to keep clean and neat through the winter.

So here to make the job easier are ten top pieces of equipment designed for much larger areas.

The first is the Mighty Mac LB5-EX Leaf Blower on special offer and showing a huge reduction on the recommended selling price.

Might Mac Leaf Blower

This is designed in the USA for clearing large areas around public areas like car parks and schools where fallen leaves can easily become slippery. And it’s also excellent for large lawns as well.

It has a 5 hp Briggs & Stratton engine and has a 38 cm impellor that creates a 257 km/hour blast of air which will shift heavy clumps of matted leaves. The direction of the blast is easily adjusted with a deflector plate.

It has a front castor wheel and pneumatic tyres at the back and is light and easy to push along.

We have this for sale for £199, £300 less than the maker’s recommended retail price.

Delivery is free the next working day and there is a one year warranty.

Here’s one on special offer and exclusive to us at MowDIRECT.

The Oleo-Mac BV270 Pro Leaf-Blower with Free Vac-Kit comes from a leading European manufacturer in Italy and is fitted with a 30.5 cc engine producing a 234 km/hour blast of air.

It is light to use, quiet in running and an ideal machine for debris clearing as it can shift not only leaves but pine cones, cans and cartons with ease.

When used as a vac it has steel blades to shred the debris into a 36 litre collection bag – the vac shredder kit worth £40 is included in the price.

It costs £199.95, £100 less than the recommended retail price and is delivered free the next working day. And there is a three year warranty from the manufacturer.

If you have a larger garden chances are that you will have a ride-on or lawn tractor and this handy device could be the answer to falling leaves.

The Agri-Fab 38″ Towed Lawn & Leaf Sweeper (45-0331) is a highly efficient machine with a sweeping width of 96.5 cm.

The working height of the sweeper is adjustable so you can clear drives and gravel paths as well.

Leaves and debris are swept into a 255 litre collector which can be emptied with the driver leaving the seat.

Professional gardeners and park keepers often prefer a back pack machine and we think this is one of the best.

The castor wheel at the front can be locked if you need to keep to a straight line.

The recommended retail price is £649 but we have it for sale for £299. Delivery the next working day is free and there is a one year warranty.

Now another towed leaf sweeper.
