With only a few weeks left until the frosty mornings and darker days, KDM Hire have put together a few of our favourite tools that are useful when clearing up your garden and tidying around the house in Autumn.
If you are looking to get those autumn gardening tasks done yourself, but don’t have the garden tools to do it, KDM Hire has everything you need!
Check out our top-rated garden tools and their uses:
Leaf Sucker/Blower
At a maximum weight of 4.5kg this leaf blower is the perfect tool to use to clear leaves and litter from flower beds and pathways or beneath lower bushes. Using this tool, you can such the leaves up or blow them all into a pile for composting.
KDM Hire recommends using gloves, ear protection and goggles when handling this garden tool.
Shredder
One of the most underrated gardening tools available on the market, shredders are the perfect solution for sorting the garden waste. Lightweight garden waste can be shredded and re-applied to flower beds and under bushes to help plants thrive and continue to grow, particularly autumn plants.
Depending on the size of your garden and the amount of landscaping you need to do, hiring a shredder could be a lot more cost-effective than employing a landscaping contractor to do the job!
It is also more environmentally friendly, as instead of purchasing compost from a garden centre you can make your own from what is already available to you, which will save you money.
Chainsaw
With the price of fuel increasing, if you have trees around your property that are unnecessary – maybe they are blocking sunlight or a nice view or even causing discolouration to your external house walls with the leaves and berries.
Hiring a battery powered chainsaw would enable you to fell these down and cut logs out of the branches and tree trunks. These logs could then be used in an open fire, stove or log boiler to heat your home.
At KDM Hire we have 3 different cordless chainsaws – 12, 16 and 20″ that are hired with safety kits and new chains each time providing you with a safe and powerful tool.
Leaf/Debris Vacuum
A great alternative to a leaf blower is a leaf and debris self-propelled garden vacuum. Using this gardening and landscaping tool makes it easy to clear up large areas of leaves, branches, litter and debris around your garden and property.
This tool has a 151L collection bag making it suitable for both residential and commercial jobs.
Despite having a large collection bag, the bag is still easily emptied by a single operator. Powered using petrol fuel, this garden tool is more cost-effective than diesel-operated ones.
Moss Brush
A great cleaning & floor care tool to use in the Autumn months – this petrol-powered moss brush makes removing thick moss from a range of surfaces easy. It offers both clockwise and anti-clockwise rotations of the brush. Due to the abrasiveness of wire this brush reduces the need for harsh chemicals making it more environmentally friendly even when removing moss from cracks and crevices in block paving and uneven surfaces.
