The leaves made me sell my house on 1/2 an acre and buy a townhouse. Every year I’d do about 60+ double and triple mulched bags. It was exhausting.

Wow. That’s a ton of clean-up.

I can relate. I progressed from bagging, to transport to local dump and this year I mulched with riding lawn mower. Fall colours are very nice until they 'fall'

I mulched, bagged and took to the recycle center. So many loads. 😬

Yea, I live right on the edge of the woods and it’s a pain in the neck. However, I’m not willing to give up my peace and quiet to share walls with noisy neighbors. I’d rather take leaves.

I had big trees and loved them except in the fall. It was weeks of entire weekends doing leaf cleanup. I wasn’t a fan.

My biggest concern is high winds. I’m afraid I’ll be crushed by the huge trees right behind me. Can’t control everything though!

I always did too. I had a few tree deaths in storms. Cost me thousands to get them taken care of.

My trees in question are not on my property. That is a neighbor’s land.

I just leave mine lay. Far better for the environment.

Nice thought. Mine were 3 feet deep. Plus taking them to our recycle turned them into compost so I was doing a good thing.

Or you can just leave the leaves. Good for nature. www.thespruce.com/why-you-shou...
