Best to get out the mower and mulch this into your yard. Keeps the grass roots protected from the frost and it helps feed your grass nutrients in the earl spring.

great if you don't live in an HOA neighborhood. otherwise, you get fined by bored neighbors for nature being nature. you also get fined for nature being nature when grass doesn't grow back because of the HOA being an HOA.

I just grip my rakes at the bottom of the handle where it flares out. That being said once bending over becomes something I have to think about doing I'll likey make something similar, but while I'm young, I'll just use my normal rakes so I don't have to build costom rakes to pick up leaves, that don't work too good at the actual raking, cause thays a lot of time, space, and effort when the alternative is just bending over slightly and gripping my normal rakes somewhat differently. Great video and idea though, there are definitely situations where its a big improvement.
