Hey everyone! I recently bought my first home at the start of the year, and it includes an astroturf backyard. I'm struggling to keep it clean from leaves, plant debris, pebbles, and the occasional piece of plastic. I've been sweeping it with a yard brush, but I feel like I need a better solution. I tried using a power washer, but the chaos of debris flying everywhere wasn't great. Has anyone used an outdoor vacuum or similar tool that can handle both small stones and leaves? Any recommendations would be super helpful. Thanks!

I had to deal with broken glass from my greenhouse and used this vacuum I found online. It picked up both glass and stones without issue, so I’m pretty sure it can handle artificial turf too. Check it out here [link]
I actually use a vintage Henry vacuum for outdoor work. It doesn't have a bag; once it’s filled, I just dump it out into a bin bag. You can find them used for about £50!
That could really work for me! Thanks for the tip!
A leaf blower/vacuum could be what you need! I don’t have artificial grass, but I use mine to clean my patio and it works pretty well. Plus, it's fun to use!
I noticed some have a shredder feature. Do you think they all come with that? And how powerful are they? Can they pick up little stones too?
Wow, that sounds perfect! So, were you able to suck up all the glass without any problems?
