With fall in full swing in Michigan, you’re likely dreading the task of leaf removal this year. If you’ve been using a leaf rake to get up your leaves year after year, and are looking for something to speed up the entire job this year, it’s time to invest in a leaf blower. A leaf blower offers a whole host of advantages compared to using just a rake.
Why Use A Leaf Blower Instead Of A Rake For Fall Cleanup?
There are countless reasons why it makes sense to use a leaf blower instead of merely a rake to take care of your leaf cleanup this year. A few of the reasons we recommend using a leaf blower instead of a rake include:
- Saves time – Raking leaves takes time, especially if you have a large lot with loads of trees. With a high quality leaf blower, you can make quick work of the leaves in your yard.
- Multifunctional – Not only are leaf blowers great for leaf removal, but they can also be used year round for various home maintenance tasks. Keep your driveway clear of debris year round, and keep your gutters clear thanks to a high quality handheld or backpack blower.
- More powerful – When raking leaves, it can often be difficult to ensure you’re getting all of the leaves that are on the ground. With a powerful gas blower, you can ensure you’re getting every last leaf that’s on your property.
- Removes snow – Yep, you heard it right. A high powered leaf blower can be used to remove snow from your car without even getting your hands dirty. This can be a help during the hard Michigan winters we’re all so accustomed to.
- Variable speed – Most gas blowers offer variable speeds, which allows you to vary the amount of power to easily blow around small shrubs without causing damage, but also increase power for areas where you need to quickly move large amounts of leaves.
