If they are real thick, I'll rake the easy ones onto a blanket then bag them.
If they aren't too thick, I'll mow the grass with the bagger, putting the clippings / chopped up leaves into bags.
We have free leaf bags / leaf bag pickup here.

No. The wind usually blows them away, for the most part. I'm pretty conscientious about mowing and trimming my lawn during the summer. But I'll be damned if I'm going to be out doing yardwork once fall comes.

I mow the ones on the grass early on, during the current low leafage period... but once the major leaf droppage is over, I'll do one big rakeage of the entire yard / planting areas, etceterage.

190 a month?!?! holy crap.
anyway...
I mow them. I like the crinklecrinkle sound, and my mulching mower does a pretty good job of chopping them up, and I despise raking.
