Commercial Leaf Vacuums
Commercial Leaf Vacuums for Mowing Crews
When your crew is clearing acres of leaves every week, a cloth bagger is not enough. Protero builds commercial-grade leaf vacuum systems that mount to zero-turn, stand-on, and tractor mowers, collect up to 18 bushels per load, and dump from the seat in seconds. Built in the USA from 3/16″ molded polyethylene and welded steel for season after season of daily commercial use.
Why Protero
High-capacity collection
10 to 18 bushel capacities mean fewer stops to unload, keeping your crew moving across large commercial properties.
Dump from the seat
A single lever empties a full load in seconds without leaving the mower, so operators stay productive all day.
PTO-powered suction
Tractor-mounted systems convert 540 RPM to over 3,000 RPM fan speed for serious airflow on heavy leaf loads.
Fits commercial decks
Engineered for 48″–74″ commercial mower decks across zero-turn, stand-on, and compact tractor platforms.
Built for daily abuse
3/16″ molded polyethylene clamshells and welded tubular steel frames handle demanding commercial schedules year after year.
Quick attach and detach
Quick-pin systems install or remove in under 30 seconds, so the catcher comes off when you need the mower for other work.
Protero Leaf Vacuum Systems for Commercial Crews
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a commercial leaf vacuum?
A commercial leaf vacuum is a high-capacity collection system that mounts to a commercial mower or tractor and uses a powered blower to pull leaves and debris into a large hopper, so your crew clears acres of leaves without raking or stopping to empty small bags.
How much can a Protero leaf vacuum hold?
Capacities range from 10 bushels (PV13) up to 18 bushels (PV22 PTO). The larger the capacity, the fewer unload stops your crew makes across a big commercial property.
Will it fit my commercial mower?
Protero systems fit most 48″–74″ commercial zero-turn, stand-on, and compact/utility tractor decks. Call us with your mower brand, model, and deck size and we will confirm the exact fit before anything ships.
How does the blower get its power?
Zero-turn and stand-on systems use a belt-driven blower mounted to the deck. Tractor systems use a PTO-driven blower that converts the tractor's 540 RPM output to over 3,000 RPM fan speed for maximum suction.
How fast can my crew empty it?
A single dump lever empties a full load in seconds without the operator leaving the seat, so your crew keeps moving through long leaf-season days.
Not sure which leaf vacuum fits your crew?
Call us with your mower brand, model, and deck size. We will match you with the right Protero system and confirm compatibility before anything ships.
