The month of October is already here, with fallen leaves painting your backyard in shades of gold, amber, and crimson. But for many homeowners, it comes with a lot of work, as backyard cleaning adds to their daily chores.
Cleaning your backyard is essential, but wasting hours raking, bagging, and hauling your leaves is not. You may end up with lower back strain and physical exhaustion, leaving you with little to no time for family and proper rest. You can make collecting fallen leaves easier with a heavy duty yard cart. Let us discover how Shore and Chore’s yard cart makes your gardening chores effortless.
Reasons Why Traditional Leaf Collection Methods Don’t Work Anymore
Autumn is a beautiful season with pleasant weather outside. Fallen leaves do make your garden look splendid; however, if they are not cleaned properly, it will make your garden look messy. Let’s look at some reasons why homeowners shouldn’t use traditional methods to collect leaves.
- Time-Consuming
You may use rakes and some tarps to collect the fallen leaves and then deposit them in the garbage. It requires multiple trips back and forth between your garden and the compost pile.
- Physically Demanding
Collecting fallen leaves in bags and dragging heavy tools like tarps requires using all your energy, leaving you easily exhausted.
- Inefficient Wheelbarrows
To prevent endless trips, many gardeners use wheelbarrows to collect fallen leaves. Sometimes, wheelbarrows may get overloaded and tip easily, which makes you work extra.
Using a Heavy Duty Yard Cart is Not an Option but a Necessity
Many gardeners in the United States are opting for Shore and Chore’s heavy duty yard cart. Not only in autumn but for the rest of the year, for all their gardening chores. You can use a yard cart to store bags or bins for fallen leaves or heavy, moisture-laden foliage after the rain, with a cargo capacity of up to 400 lbs. That means you can carry anything inside the cart, keeping its weight-carrying capacity in mind.
Let’s look at some of our yard carts’ features that make them best for your gardening activities.
- Expanding Pull-Out Sides
You need a heavy duty yard cart to carry long, awkward gardening tools of varying sizes, such as rakes, shovels, and so on. Thus, you can have everything in one place without requiring multiple trips to collect your tools.
- Spacious Interior Capacity
A day in your garden in autumn requires carrying leaf bags, buckets, garden debris, and all the gear. You also need contractor bags to store fallen leaves in a designated place, unless they reach the compost pit. That’s when Shore and Chore’s yard cart comes to the rescue.
- Bungee Ball Tie Downs
The yard cart has four bungee ball tie-downs on each side. Along with adjustable side pull-outs, they have locking notches to keep your gardening tools secure in place. Therefore, while hauling your cart, you don’t need to check whether the tools are sliding down or not due to a sudden jerk.

- Durable Construction
The side canvas panel is made from double-stitched, stain-resistant poly-blend fabric. It is what makes them long-lasting despite weather changes and the rigors of outdoor use.
- Separate Beverage Holders
You will find separate places to keep water bottles at both the front and rear ends of your yard cart. Thus, you can carry your water bottles, a thermos flask containing tea, coffee, or any refreshing drink of your choice. No longer do you need to rush to your home in the middle of your gardening chores to quench your thirst.
- Small Exterior Pockets
Yard carts are meant to keep not only your large tools, but also your small ones. The side canvas panel has a designated place to keep trowels, pruners, and small rakes. Thus, you have all the essential gardening tools within your arm’s reach.
