It’s getting colder and windier. Time for September!

Here at MowDIRECT, we could barely be more excited for September.

Sure, some people like to think of the incoming autumn in – shall we say – less than kind terms, but for us green fingered enthusiasts, it's time to dig in for the winter and start all of the preparation needed for a fantastic spring ahead.

Clearing the leaves

Oh leaves. You look so, so beautiful, but – quite frankly – you completely ruin the look of our gardens. 

Yes the odd scattering of crisp brown leaves can make even the most bare yard burst with colour, but there comes a time where the debris starts to go all mulchy and disgusting. Ugh!

While raking does get rid of this mess, it would take the most patient of enthusiasts to go around a half acre armed with this old-fashioned utensil.

Instead – why not try the fantastic Sanli Leaf Blower? This powerful backpack-mounted device will give you the ammunition you need to properly organise your garden so that it doesn't get covered in unwanted leaves.

But please, try not to scare the neighbours with your Terminator 2 impressions. We might think it's hilarious, but they might not find it as comical!

One last big mow

Ah, the big mow. Yes, you know what I'm talking about – that huge effort you put in to get your grass in absolutely perfect shape before the rain comes in and makes keeping lawns short and tidy nigh on impossible.

September is a fantastic time to do this and while previous Octobers have been kind in staying relatively dry so that us lawn-maniacs can get out there and keep things prim and proper, there's no telling how soon we'll be hit by never-ending showers!

But are you tired of using petrol or plug-in mowers? Why not try something different?! 

Our Greenworks 40V G-Max cordless lawn mower is becoming something of a sensation. This appliance is fully battery powered – getting rid of the expensive fuel and pesky cables that it seems to take forever to get out of the way.

And best of all, we're running a special offer on this product that's fully exclusive to MowDIRECT! Whilst the recommended retail price of this amazing mower is £399.00 – you can order it on our website for just £259.00 including VAT. We must be bonkers!

Getting rid of overhanging trees

Summer is fantastic and I'm sure we all enjoyed watching Chris Froome and Andy Murray dominating the rest of the world – as well as the cricket and rugby Lions' victories over the Aussies.

But with the excesses of summer comes the overgrowth of trees. Yep, this might not be the sexiest topic in the world, but when trees get straggly and too big, it can become a real nightmare and even result in neighbourly disputes.

So what better way to solve this problem than to chop down the offending branches and pop them in a chipper? Our German-engineered Al-Ko Power Slider 2500R is fully electric and comes with an extra-powerful 2500w motor sure to prevent kickbacks and blocks. Just like the British and Irish Lions' locks!
