Depends on your neighbors. On my street everyone picks them up. Mine of course don’t fall off till late December. But I still get it done. Basically the wind is going to blow them all around at some point here soon. So if it’s going to piss off your neighbors pick them up. If no one else seems to care, just leave him be. They’re actually good for your lawn, “lawn food.”
Easiest way to quickly pickup is mow the lawn. Raking and mulching takes up less space. But it’s a hell of a lot longer, and obviously more work intensive.

Don’t blow them around a tree. You can probably go short enough to get them mulched once so they can overwinter.

I personally love leaving the leaves every season for the bugs. So many moths and other critters such as lightening bugs use leaf litter for their young. Leave them be!

Leaves can turn your lawn to mush if it’s deep. I let them lie in my gardens and even mulch my yard and throw excess in my garden, but don’t let much unmilched leaves stay on my lawn.

Mow them up and then leave them
