Top 8 Leaf Mulchers to Clean Up Your Lawn This Fall

The WORX has an 11:1 chop ratio and weighs only 20 pounds, which makes it easy to lift and store but just heavy enough to stand sturdily on its own. It's easy to assemble, and the string line trimmer is equally easy to replace when needed. Customers were impressed with its mulching abilities and claimed that it could easily handle the remains of their garden, plus some small sticks.

This mulcher can shred leaves and limbs up to ½-inch in diameter and its three-blade configuration makes quick work of debris. The waste bag has a 50-gallon capacity, and because the mulcher can reduce 13 bags of leaves into one, that means you can clear a lot of space before you need to empty the bag.

This Sun Joe leaf blower is ideal for getting in the tough to reach cracks and crevices. It is the perfect tool to clean up a walkway, a small garden, and even your gutters with its handy extender. It also functions as a vacuum, mulcher, and gutter cleaner which makes it a great four-in-one tool for the fall. The mulching feature has a 16:1 mulching ratio so you can maximize the amount of leaves per bag, making for easy cleanup.

Electric lawn tools are ideal for larger jobs, because you don't have to stop to swap batteries or refill gas tanks. LawnMaster's 3-in-1 is a leaf blower with an air speed of up to 240MPH. Once your leaves are in a pile, switch to vacuum mode and a metal impeller mulches the incoming leaves at a 16:1 ratio. The 14-gallon collection bag holds a lot, and is designed to block dust from escaping as you work.

Though labeled a leaf blower, this tool comes with an impressive vacuum and mulcher attachment. And unlike many leaf blowers, which require a bit of disassembly to go from blower to mulcher and back again, the WG509 allows you to change between the two modes easily with the flick of a switch.

Customers praised this Greenworks 3-in-1's power, noting that it had plenty of suction even on the low setting, and it's mulching power which allows you to fill up to 4.5 bags of debris on a single charge. Greenworks also backs it up with a four-year tool and two-year battery warranty, which is great for a tool at this price point.
