The leaves have started tumbling from the trees and the sooner you start to clear them away the better. Modern hand-held blower vacs are the perfect way to blow them into a pile before vacuuming them up and shredding them into a collection bag.
Shredded leaves can then go straight on to the compost pile where they will rot more quickly or be used to mulch over-wintering plants and shrubs.
We have a huge selection to choose from and her we give you ten for your short list.
