After you trim your hedges

What's the best way to dispose of the clippings? Since it's been cooler these past few days I went hedge-clipping crazy and I now have leaves/twigs everywhere, all over my black mulch, that will start turning brown in a few days.

Is there like a Dust-buster for this kind of thing? Or should I have put garbage bags down before I broke out the chainsaw?

Re: After you trim your hedges

we rake them and bag them. But with mulch underneath, I'm not sure if that would work for you. Can you push them under the hedges so they act as a natural mulch for them?

We usually lay a tarp down before triming and then scoop it up and empty into garbage.
