8 Useful Items for Cleaning Your Garden

When cleaning up that messy garden that you have left so long, there are some useful tools that you can utilize to make your life a lot easier. Some of them are long-standing inventions, like opting for trailer rental to simplify transporting junk. Others are newer. They all give the weary gardener a bit of a break.

A Trailer

What do you do when you have huge amounts of garden waste that you have to take to the dump? Do you find a friend with an open-top-back, or do you put it in bags and use your own car to take it?

Well, to save your friendships, there is another option. Did you know you can hire a trailer? It makes life so much easier when you need to cart heavy loads.

There are a variety of trailers to choose from, but for the garden, you will want one with a solid side. One with see-through mesh fencing also works the best. It gives you a bit of leeway in terms of piling garden debris quite high, and it is long and wide enough to accommodate a lot of rubbish.

It’s ideal if you can cart it off to a garden composting center, but you can also consider taking it to second-hand goods stores if you’re throwing away unused items like toys or furniture.

The concept of trailers may be old – they have been around for ages, but they are essential to have available. If you do consider buying one for yourself, you may think of one that has a closed top that can be removed. Then you have a multi-purpose trailer, and you can pop in your luggage to go on holiday as well.

A Mechanical Sweeper

Mechanical sweepers are little hand-held machines with brushes on the corners of a small box. It looks rather like a lawnmower and is used to sweep leaves or petals, or simply get rid of grisly patches on the drive. It certainly makes life far easier than using a rake!

Mechanical Scrubber

This nifty piece of equipment makes your life significantly easier by helping you keep terraces, pavement, tiles, and astroturf a lot cleaner. You can get rid of dirt and vegetation – no more scraping away weeds from in-between the tiles. When you use it regularly the expense becomes a wise investment to save you time and look after your assets.

Outdoor Brush

The outdoor brush is a brush that is connected to a pressure hose, so it combines the action of the pressure hose and mechanical scrubber in one. You could use it in smaller spaces and use it for tough areas to clean.

Pressure Washer

The hot water pressure washers or any pressure washer is generally used for washing the car. You no longer have to spend an hour or two breaking your back trying to get the dirt off your vehicle or rinsing it. A pressure hose will get rid of the dirt for you in no time. That’s professionalism right inside your own backyard while saving time!

You could also use it for washing the windows, or even hosing down the driveway down. Once again, a great investment thanks to its versatility.

Branch Cutter

The branch-cutter is one of those invaluable tools that you will turn to again and again. It is a little like a wire cutter, only bigger, and you use it to cut small branches. The saw will be used for bigger branches. It is a simple snip, and the branch is off. This is extremely handy and useful for all those straggly trees that you wish to neaten up.

Leaf Blower

The leaf-blower is such a fun tool, every homeowner should get one, just for the fun of it. It is also used to manage those fallen leaves that litter the garden in such a determined manner in the autumn and winter. It is a little weighty, but you have great fun chasing the leaves around the garden and forming them into little mounds. Bring out the kid in you and get one. Bonus: the kids will enjoy helping you.

Edger

We’re not talking about the electric one that whirls round and round – that can sometimes be called a trimmer. Here the topic is the tool that looks like an electrified pizza-cutter with long handles.

It’s incredibly useful for cutting a very neat edge next to pathways in no time. No more digging with a spade for hours and you’ll get a professional look for your premises. Once you have experienced it, you are not going to want to go back to digging by hand.
