We just have to pause the mowing for a few minutes to empty the bag maybe - twice each time we mow the lawn. It gets emptied into the lawn bag for the next trash day, along with weeds and shrub trimming debris.

There's nothing on a driveway that a push broom can't sweep off, no idea why anyone would need a blower at all around here.
I agree but, I have NEVER in all these years ever seen ONE yard service that does NOT blow all the debris into neighboring yards before they leave ! ?
