How does a vacuum sweeper fit in autumn for Grounds Maintenance?

As the season begins to shift into autumn, fallen leaves and other organic debris start to accumulate on the ground. It’s the time of year when most of us reach for the leaf blower, but in some cases, blowers can become inefficient or even counterproductive. For example, when working around garden beds, blowers can easily scatter bark chips or mulch onto nearby walkways or lawns. This creates extra work as the material then needs to be cleaned up from areas it wasn’t meant to reach.

Vacuum sweepers are best suited for areas of large volume of fallen leaves and blowing isn’t effective or desirable. They collect debris directly into a container, which minimises manual handling and prevents material from being blown back onto already cleared spaces. They are particularly essential in locations such as cemeteries, public parks, or formal lawns where a clean, polished appearance is required. Vacuum collection also becomes essential after storms or during prolonged wet conditions, when damp, matted leaves are difficult to move using air alone.

The Matev vacuum sweeper can be used with the Matev collection system.

For maintaining larger areas which are run by municipalities, school districts, or commercial contractors, vacuum sweepers can keep multiple sites under control. They reduce the need for repeated visits, save on manual labour, and help teams maintain consistent results throughout the leaf season.

With autumn around the corner, planning ahead for leaf and debris removal can make a big difference. Vacuum sweepers like the MRM-120 AS offer a reliable solution especially in high-maintenance areas or large, multi-site operations.
