The mechanism may be manually operable or automatically operable, either driven by the power supply of the lawnmower or by an external power source. The mechanism may be an Archimedes screw, or means for generating a flow of air to suck or blow the grass through the outlet. The outlet is preferably an expandable flexible duct. The lawnmower may have a sensor to detect when the collector is full and an alarm to alert a user.
