I think the mow method depends on the amount of trees you have. In my front yard, I can mow once or twice and the leaves will crumble. In my back, however, it gets gross with giant piles of crumbles.
Also, there are almost always little sticks and twigs in those piles, so the mower's blades get chewed up.
We tend to rake onto a tarp and put it on a trailer to bring to the recycle center. Lighter areas, I mow with a bagger.
I was just gifted a Ryobi backpack blower that seems to work well for pulling leaves away from the house, trailer, etc.
Not sure there's one best system other than 8gv's writing a check!
