Vacuum for garden beds?

[rab66]

Hi 

Can you please recommend a small handheld cordless vacuum (lightweight)that I can hold Standing up to get rid of dust ontop of much in garden bed indoors?

As the beds are next to doors that automatically open constantly the mulch gets covered in dust.

Also it has to be a quite one and doesn't cause the mulch to go everywhere and doesn't get sucked up in bag.

Hello @rab66 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about a vacuum for your garden bed.

I'm afraid I don't have anything that gentle a vacuum as they are mostly designed to suck up leaves and other debris. For example, the Ryobi 18V ONE+ Cordless Garden Vacuum And Sweeper R18XBLV20 - Tool Only although only 18V is strong enough to fill a 45L bag. A smaller unit such as the Ozito PXC 18V 10L Cordless Wet And Dry Vacuum / Inflator - Skin Only is much more compact but is definitely still powerful enough to suck up mulch. 

I can only suggest using an Oates Ultimate Indoor Broom to gently move the mulch surface to dislodge the dust that has settled on it. 

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
