Leaf Vacuums Leaf Blowers & Vacuums Outdoor Power Equipment Yard, Garden & Outdoor Living
No matter what your leaf disposal needs, one of our leaf vacuums is for you. Choose from our handheld, walk behind push leaf vacuums, or riding vacuums. The one that will work best in your yard can depend the area you have to cover. Also, the sheer volume of leaves dropped by your trees will affect your leaf vacuum purchase. Larger yards will require a push model vacuum or maybe even a riding vacuum if your yard is extremely large and spread out.

The most lightweight and portable and portable are the handheld leaf vacuums, which is why they are the most popular option for the average person for home jobs. Both gas and electric powered models can be found. The gas leaf vacuums will produce more power without the restriction of an electrical cord, but will also make more noise and emit pollution through the gas exhaust fumes.
For larger yards or more frequent use, a better choice may be a push model or riding vacuum. Push model leaf vacuums are usually more powerful than the handhelds. A push vacuum will also shred the leaves as it vacuums, making disposal much easier. Very large yards may required a riding leaf vacuum to effectively cover the entire space. Even the largest of yards can be cleared in a matter of minutes with a good riding leaf vacuum. Riding vacuums are also quite a bit more expensive than handheld models, so they are mostly used by commercial gardeners or those with large expanses of lawn to cover.
