don't have $200 to spend on a 3hp electrical one. I also prefer

I'm not looking to chop logs...just leaves, grass and a few
branches that get trimmed each year.

Yes!

I've always thought it would be neat if you could have a garbage
disposal on your kitchen sink that would save the ground up stuff in a
container so you could throw it on the compost.

Would that be called a "blender"? lol

If you have a rotary mower you canrun that over the cut up smaller bits
and it chops and collects.
