  • A grass bagger for a mower is an accessory that collects the grass clippings from the mower deck and stores them in a container or a bag. 
  • A grass bagger can also be useful for mulching, composting, or disposing of clippings. 
  • There are several types of grass baggers, such as hard plastic, soft fabric, or mesh, and they can have single, double, or triple bins. 
  • Some grass baggers are designed for specific models of mowers, while others are more universal.

There are many reasons why you should purchase a grass bagger for your mower, especially if you have a large lawn, or a lawn care business. Some of the benefits of using a grass baggers include:

  • Baggers can help keep your lawn clean and tidy, and prevent the build-up of thatch.

What are the drawbacks of using a Bagger?

Owning a grass bagger can improve your lawn in many ways, but it also has a few drawbacks.  

  • Using a bagger can reduce the natural fertilizer and moisture the grass clippings provide to the soil.  
  • A bagger can increase the need for artificial fertilizer and irrigation to maintain the lawn quality.  
  • Sometimes, but not often, a bagger may add to  waste disposal problem, unless you reuse or recycle the clippings.  
  • It can cost more to store a grass bagger and its bags.
  • The extent to which a grass bagger will improve your lawn depends on your lawn type, climate, and preference. Depending on the season and condition of your lawn, you may want to alternate between bagging and mulching.

Is it hard to install and remove a bagger/bagging system from a mower?

The difficulty of installing a bagger on your mower varies depending on the type and model of the bagger, and your mower. However, most baggers are designed to be easy to install and remove, with minimal tools and time required.  

Removing a grass bagger from your mower also varies depending on the type and model of the bagger and your mower. However, most baggers are designed to be easy to remove.  

  • Detach the grass bagger from the mower by lifting the rear shield or the discharge guard and pulling the bag out.  
  • Detach the old bag from the frame by unhooking the plastic retainers, or unclipping the bag retainers and sliding the bag off the frame.  
  • Store the bag and frame in a safe, dry place until your next use.

What are the different types of Baggers?

  • Powered baggers use a blower to push the clippings up through the bagging system and into the bag. The blower is mounted to the side chute and then connected to the mower deck using a belt and pulley system. These are by far the most powerful systems for collecting grass clippings from the mower deck.
  • Non-Powered Bagger: This type of bagger mounts the same way as a powered bagger, but does not connect to the pulley systems. Instead, they rely on the airflow generated by the blades as they spin to carry the clippings to the bag.
  • Multi Bag Bagger System: The number of bags included with a collection system may vary. Two and three-bag systems are readily available to fit most zero turn mowers. The two factors to consider are the bag’s overall capacity and the individual weight of each bag when full. You may find a bag from a double bag system (when full), is too heavy to handle, so a triple bag setup could work better.
