A vacuum collector assembly comprises a mountable hitch having support posts connected to one another by horizontal supports and a hinge mechanism for connecting to a trailing carriage. The trailing carriage includes a lift assembly and an engine support frame for mounting thereon an engine operating conjunctively with an impeller assembly for developing negative pressure within a blower housing that is connected in between a receptacle hood and a lawn cutting deck. The engine support frame generally extends outwardly from a pair of vertical columns each having ends connected to support runners for situating atop thereof a pair of receptacles holders suited for receiving receptacle bins utilized in storing collected debris. The lift assembly comprises side arms functioning with a trailer jack having internal gearing made operable by an extension rod and handle assembly to facilitate rotation thereof that effects lifting and lowering of the trailing carriage apart and away from the mountable hitch to allow for wheeled transport and storage of the vacuum collector assembly.
