Best October Prime Day Deals on Yard and Garden Tools

Having the right tools for the job can make garden, yard, and home maintenance easier, but those prices can be a tough pill to swallow. During Amazon’s October Prime Days, you can take advantage of sales on a bunch of tools to help you tackle projects all over the house. Here are a few of the standout deals I’ve found so far.

Cordless leaf blowers

Gas-powered leaf blowers are becoming less common as municipalities pass ordinances against them and consumers reap the benefits of electric tools that don’t need any gas to run. These battery-powered blowers can save you money as well as time when you’re doing your fall yard clean-up.

• The Makita 18 Volt LXT leaf blower is on sale for $170.05, 56% off its regular price. This blower also comes with a charger and a 4-amp-hour battery.

• The DeWalt 20 Volt MAX compact blower is on sale for $149, 42% off its typical price. This smaller, more compact blower comes with an 18-volt, 4-amp-hour battery and a charger.

Chainsaws and trimmers

Using a chainsaw is one of the greatest joys of doing yard work, if you ask me. They can be very handy when handling downed branches, trimming trees and shrubs, and cutting firewood. Here are some deals on making short work of long branches.

Power tools are fun in most parts of the home, but in the garden, hand tools are indispensable. Here are a few human-powered garden tools for pruning, planting, and weeding to get your yard into shape this fall.
