  • Lots of boys helping clean up lots of leaves--lots of time saved by the use of a billy goat debris vac.

    Pretty cool watching your boys in the mix. Not often you see kids who actually want to work. Great job all around.

    Debris collectors make leaf cleanup fun; they do a good job vacuuming out the truck to.

    Those leaves are pure gold for an organic gardener/fruit-grower. If I lived closer I would offer to clean that all up for your just for the leaves and pine needles. BTW, pine needles are the very best thing for blueberry mulch, and oak leaves are the very best thing for strawberry mulch. My leaf vacuum is also a shredder/grinder/chopper.

    I subscribed. You and your family are good people. Looking forward to seeing more vids. I have 2 boys and 2 girls all young. They already ask if they can come with me. But maybe I'll wait a few more years. My oldest is 8 so my other ones are baby's. Good job out there guys👍

    Here in LOndon,UK,I have a small team of gardeners out cleaning up leaves here in St Johns Wood and Chelsea.It is an expensive event for our customers but the recycling is a huge part of the bill.

    If you ever saw a grain vac in action your leaf sucker would seem a little slow... just saying.. Try a wider thinner pipe end too. Good work boys.

    When he's almost done with a pile, it might be quicker to lay the hose down, & rake the leaves / pine needles into the nozzle

    No. We had to scoop it out by hand. This year we use a stock trailer and have a pull out system.

    "You're gonna need a bigger machine."
    That Billy Goat is only about 18 to 20 horsepower. Right? You need something about 35 horsepower and up, to really suck up those piles in a matter of minutes, instead of the pace your going at.
    Looks like fun, though.

      _maybe_ 300 to pile it ....pickup, haul & dump are anothet matter entirely. leaves aren't boring when you get good money for your trouble. i personally enjoy putting my 8500 on leaves anyway, unless they're soaked.
