    This will be the first year that I will be doing leaf removals, and I want to be ahead of the game before I start. I have an Echo Pb-650 for blowing, but I'm wondering how you guys get rid of the leaves, so you mow over them with a bagger, or just bag them by hand.
    Also is there any other equipment that I need to buy.
    Any advice would be great!

    First I blow the leaves out of all the beds and ornamentals and shrubs onto the lawn. Then blow off all the hard surfaces and decks or patios onto the lawn.Then I pick them up with lazer and ultravac.Very simple,very profitable.

    Let it Grow,

    I was doing a search on this site the other night about baggin leaves. There's an awesome thread.... something like "your leaf removal system" lots of replies and pics. Think LGF may have started it? Can't remember what I typed in to the search.... just try ''leaf removal"and it'll probably pull it up.
