Selections Long Handled Leaf Collecting Rake Grabber

Product Information

Sweeping up fallen leaves can result in a clean and tidy finish, but the process itself can be long, boring and hard work. Made picking them up a breeze and despite the wheel barrow being full, i emptied it in about three goes.

The long handles and wide blades mean you can easily scoop up leaves without having to bend down to pick them up. So I still rake them into piles with a plastic tine leaf rake but then I can lift them with this leaf grabber and also rake again by opening it up to get those last few leaves without having to grab the rake again to finish the job off.As the name suggests, you can wear the former in a glove-like fashion and protect your hands from wet leaves and slugs as you remove large handfuls of leaves from pathways. Welcome to my site, my name is John and I have been lucky enough to work in horticultural nurseries for over 15 years in the UK. We’re proud to supply tip-top products from trusted brands, such as Westland and Taylors, with compost, bark, potting mix, and manure for all your gardening and landscaping needs. If there is one garden tool I wouldn’t be without, especially in autumn, it’s a decent leaf grabber. The idea is to use the rake-like end of the circular disc to rake the leaves into a pile, and them smoosh the leaves together between the two grabbers.

Make light work of collecting leaves, grass cuttings and other debris with these long handled grabs. Then I mow over them, which also helps break them down which helps them break down more efficiently in a compost bin or compost tumbler, which I’ve been using more recently.

There are two different leaf grabber options to consider: the glove style and the long-handled style. Even in dry weather conditions your tools, if left outside, are exposed to moisture from wet grass and dew.

There are convenient rubber grips on the end of the poles for your comfort – you grab along the poles somewhere that suits you. These are worth considering, maybe if you’re comparing against the Draper model for the extra sturdiness.This is a leaf grabber whose handles are made of red powder-coated steel and overall build quality is great including the plastic scoops. These simple yet smart horticultural essentials are invaluable when it comes to clearing large volumes of grass cuttings, leaves and garden waste.
