Thats why if its not a final clean up and leaves are still coming down I always have the guys start in back and finish the front last so at least when we leave the front looks spotless. Looks better for people driving by.

Some cleanups today, the shredder is working awesome. I can fit a ton more in there with the shredder compared to just dumping them in whole.

Make sure those engines aren't hot and the leaves don't catch on fire.

are you mulching them and then collecting them or just blowing them out to the street and collecting the left overs? I would throw some gator blades on your mower, blow them all to the "leaf vac" then use the mower to collect the scraps. from the looks of it your mulching them and it doesnt look that great. It looks decent but I think it would look a lot better if you blew majority of the leaves.

I've thought about gator blades. What I do is blow them to the vac and shred them onto the trailer. The mulching was done by the H/O before I started doing it.
