My leaf blower has a reverse function which sucks up the leaves, shreds them and puts 'em in an attached bag. Problem is the bag is only a little larger than a vaccuum cleaner bag. I have seen industrial sized leaf sucker/shredders that roll about on wheels, and have big 'ol bags--probably made by Toro or some other yard/garden equipment manufacturer.

Actually, I've been told that it's better to shred leaves and use them as mulch. Shredded leaves decompose nicely in a compost pile too. I just go over them with the lawn mower. Of course, I don't have any majestic oak trees throwing off tons of leaves.
