If, and that's a big if, i decide to do something about the leaves, I leaf-blower (wired electric, gas will shortly become illegal) them up against a block wall, snow shovel them into an 85 gallon "green waste" barrel that the city supplies (that they charge me for, of course) and they disappear with the weekly trash pickup.
same here. I have a decent little plot and a fair amount of trees. I just blow everything down and against the fence and either mulch it or shovel it into the greens.
they'll take my backpack blower when they pry it from my cold dead hands.
