Number 1 enemy of leaves, litter and debris

Why a vacuum?

A vacuum is the fastest and most effective way to collect and contain debris in one go. Unlike sweepers or blowers that only move the problem around, Billy Goat vacuums lift and capture everything from fine dust to larger branches directly into a collection bag. That means less time spent on clean-up and a tidier finish, no matter the surface.

With options from the versatile KV Series for residential and light-commercial use, to the heavy-duty MV Series for larger properties, and the advanced QV Series featuring QUIETVAC™ technology for low-noise performance, there’s a model to suit every job.

FAQ: What Pros Ask

What engine options are available?

The KV and MV Series are powered by Briggs & Stratton commercial engines, known for reliability and easy service. The QV Series uses Honda GX engines (GX160 or GX270).

Do the vacuums reduce debris volume?

Yes. Serrated impellers shred material as it’s collected. For example, the QV’s 6-blade steel fan provides a reduction ratio of up to 12:1 in dry conditions, which is especially useful when composting.

How noisy are the vacuums in operation?

If it is noise you are worried about, go for the QV series! The QUIETVAC™ range is engineered for low sound levels, as low as 77 dBa at working speed, making them suitable for urban clean-up without disturbing the public any more than necessary.

Why would I use disposable liners?

For high-volume jobs they save time. Disposable liners slot inside the collection bag, eliminating the need to re-bag debris later. Crews on municipal contracts often use them to keep turnaround quick.

Can I use the vacuums on both turf and hard surfaces?

Yes. The KV and MV Series feature variable height adjustment, so you can switch quickly between pavements, car parks and turf. The “Gobbler Door” on the MV Series makes it even easier to fine-tune suction without tools.

What is the Gobbler Door on the MV Series?

The Gobbler Door is an adjustable intake flap on the MV vacuums. From the operator’s position, you can open or close it to direct more suction to hard surfaces, turf, or when using the hose kit. It saves time by letting you fine-tune suction without tools, so you get better pick-up and less clogging across mixed surfaces and sites.
