Raking the Leaves Onto a Tarp

It's the time of year for raking leaves! Make it easier on your back by using an old sheet, large tablecloth or discarded shower curtain as a tarp. Rake the leaves onto your "tarp" and then simply pick up one corner and drag it to the roadside, then tip to pile the leaves for pick-up! Even if you have to bag the leaves, you will at least have them all in one spot.

I did this one year to move leaves from my neighbors' yards to my own, to use as compost. I got help from the little boys next door, and then sprinkled water on the leaves to keep them from blowing away.
