Grass clippings will compact to a least a sixth of the volume by
themselves within a few days in the summer.


Indeed, but I can take several cubic metres of them off the lawn in one
cutting when its growing fast... they really ain't going in the bin!
(not to mention it would mean manually handling them up into the bin
after the mower dumps em on the ground)



As long as you mow frequently they are better left on the grass anyway.
When you start cutting inches off then they become messy in the wet.
