It's funny you say "next winter", because here it would be "next fall". It's amazing how things differ in different parts of the country. What I do is use my 2 mowers to bag the leaves and dump them in the street. If I am in the backyard I put them on a tarp and pull them into the street. I also use my blower and either blow them directly into the street or blow them into a pile to be put on a tarp. Next year I might try to mulch the leaves and then go through again bagging them, to reduce the amount of leaves I have to bag. This is a picture from this fall of a leaf clean-up job where I blew the leaves into a pile (kinda) to be put onto a tarp. The pile of leaves just keeps on going into the distance! :tongue:
