Long frustrated me ;^) Love the paper lawn waste bags you can buy in
the hardware store. They contain the perfect amount for my yard and
easy to haul.
I just have a devil of a time getting them started when empty ;^)
Pulling off my mower bag and trying to dump it in the bag when empty
is a bit frustrating. Once it gets grass in it, its easier. With all
the peopel on this NG Im wondering if someone has come up with any
tricks for this minor, but frustrating step ;^)

I get my yard waste bags for free.
I drive down the road and pick up full ones to add to my compost.
When I dump them I give them to my non pesticide crazed neighbors to
refill.
Time to put a mulching blade on your mower and put the clippings back
to the soil where they belong. This will improve the soil and reduce
the nitrogen input required by over 50%
