I just blow it into the street, although most of the time I just collect the clippings and bag them.

Grass is one of those things in life that you shouldn't let yourself get worked up about. It'll usually take care of itself, and if it gets too long for the neighbors then they'll usually take care of it for you.

What NSFW rule did it break?


I think it was because I linked it to a page, and not to my photobucket.

I bag them and then dump the collected clippings on my neighbor's porch.

I blow them further into the street. They dry up and cars spread them out.

Of course not, but it's not like the grass on the street will stay around until someone has to go pick it up.
Hell, with this heat now, any cut grass tends to vaporize in just a few hours.

Jesus Christ. It's really not that hard to blow them into your own yard. Blowing it into the street is just straight up laziness. I wish there was a fine for it.
Yeah blah blah blah. It doesn't hurt anyone.
It's just trashy looking and pure laziness.

But just get your blower and blow it all onto their driveway. All over their cars. Whatever

Grass clippings are fertilizer for your yard as long as they aren't clumps of grass.

Is this even a question? Yes its trashy to leave grass clippings in the street.

Why would anyone sweat their arse off trimming and mowing in this heat and right at the end become a lazy trashy bum? Blow the damn grass back into your own lawn and leave your street looking nice. It makes the work you just did look that much neater.

Less trashy than not mowing your grass at all like my neighbors. Lowers my property value because of his lazy arse


Just wait until he cuts his grass before you put your house on the market.

Clippings can be dangerous to motorcycles, especially if they're in a blind curve.

My HOA prohibits leaving clippings in the street.

I always make my first 2 passes down by the street with the discharge chute blowing back into the yard, just to minimize clippings in the street.
