Debris Handling

Cleaning up debris is typically one of the least favorite tasks involved with landscape beautification. Debris handling includes activities such as clearing leaves, grass clippings, sand, sticks, thatch, and other forms of organic debris.

Despite the undesirable nature of these activities, debris management is essential to landscape management. Alleviating the daunting nature of this task is simple using appropriate debris handing equipment.

Blowers

The annual task of removing fall leaves can be made easy by trading in your rake for a blower. Removing leaves may become especially difficult when leaves become wet or are mixed with other forms of debris. Blowers take the backbreaking work out of consolidating leaves. Not all blowers are created equal.
Little Wonder has developed a walk-behind blower with a patented deflector allowing the fastest moving air to work at the heavy base of the leaf pile while the upper-level airflow keeps the leaves herded into a centralized pile. This technology solves the blowback problem encountered with other blowers and ultimately saves you time and frustration.

Handheld and backpack blowers are also available and provide for easy handling. RedMax developed and patented Strato-Charged engine technology featuring increased fuel efficiency and reduced emissions. Commercial blowers provide optimal blowing with Free Flow Air Net technology. Gutter and vacuum kits are available as accessories to help make your job easier.

Handling big jobs with ease.

Giant-vac pro-series heavy duty truck loaders are designed to make quick work of large jobs. Our heavy duty models come standard with high torque industrial grade engines. Other impressive features include bolt-in replaceable wear liners in the blower housing and discharge stack, large capacity intake hoses, pintle-eye hitches, 90-degree intake flange and Tor-Flex axles with 4-ply tires. With 4-blade, welded steel 1/2" and 3/4" thick impellers these units are powerful enough to make any job routine.

Truckloaders

Once you have gathered debris into a pile, it must be loaded for final removal from the site. Truckloaders make this task more efficient. Loaded on your tailgate or hitched to the back of your removal truck, debris is suctioned into your removal container.
Little Wonder offers truckloaders with shredding capacity to help further efficiency. You will be able to pack in more debris, limiting dumping trips. Truckloaders come in varying horsepower so you can choose the power level that is appropriate for your needs.

Sweepers

Sweepers provide another way to clear debris. The rotating brush of a sweeper can pick up leaves, grass clippings, litter, and pine needles. Debris is swept into a collection container for easy disposal. Choose between three types of sweeper designs-push, powered, and tow. Power or tow sweepers are recommended for larger areas. Push sweepers are lighter weight and economical because they do not require fuel.

RedMax created a sweeper attachment for the Maxtreme. The Maxtreme is an ultimate multitasking machine with five different tool attachments available. Its seven-point, splined, solid-steel drive shaft reduces vibration and delivers power where it is needed. Sweepers can be used as an alternative to blowers in locations where blowers are not permitted due to noise ordinances. Give your yard a good combing to keep it looking fresh with a sweeper.

Conclusions

Debris management is a major biannual task involved in overall landscape beautification. Controlling landscape debris will not only make your landscape look beautiful, it will help prevent pests, minimize fire risk, and create an optimal environment for landscape health.

Some forms of debris may also be gathered and used as composting material. This provides an environmentally friendly way to handle yard debris. Whether your job is big or small, proper debris management tools will assist you in efficiently and economically managing any landscape.
