A tow-behind lawn sweeper uses its wheels to spin a row of brushes that flick leaves, needles and clippings into a fabric hopper behind them. With no engine there’s nothing to fuel or service, and most fold or stand on end for storage. They pick up dry debris best; wet, matted leaves and long grass are harder for brushes to lift.
