It’s really not necessary to collect and discard leaves, unless you have an unusually large amount of them. The best thing to do is chop them up with the mower when you cut your grass. The little pieces of leaves break down faster than if they were whole. They also help protect the grass from ice and cold, and provide nutrients in the spring.
