Milwaukee’s M18 FUEL Dual Battery Mulching Vacuum, model 3014-20, is rated at 590 CFM and mulches leaves at a 10:1 ratio, but it is not on sale yet. Milwaukee Tool Canada marks the page “coming soon” and gives no release date or Canadian price. Landscape Management, reporting from the Pipeline 2026 launch event, wrote that the tool is set for release in early 2027.
What does the 3014-20 do?
It is a battery-powered leaf vacuum that shreds what it collects. Milwaukee’s Canadian page lists a POWERSTATE brushless motor, 590 CFM of airflow, a 10:1 mulch ratio and a bag that holds 1.9 bushels (17.7 gal).
The bag attaches to a harness with adjustable straps, so the vacuum sits in front of the user. Milwaukee says the bag uses a single buckle to make emptying easier, and the tube comes off without tools for clearing jams or storage. SlashGear repeats these specs and adds that the tool carries a 3-year limited warranty.
Which batteries does it need?
It runs on two M18 REDLITHIUM FORGE HD15 batteries, and Milwaukee says they are sold separately. The company claims more than 30 minutes of runtime at full throttle per charge with that pair.
Pro Tool Reviews lists the M18 REDLITHIUM FORGE HD15 battery at $379, due January 2027. If you do not already own HD15 packs, plan for the batteries as well as the tool.
How much does it cost, and when can I buy it?
Pro Tool Reviews lists the vacuum at $499 with a January 2027 date. Its list shows US dollars only, so treat that as a US figure. Milwaukee Tool Canada shows no CAD price, and Landscape Management says early 2027. Neither date is firm until Milwaukee confirms it.

Who it suits
Landscape Management showed Milwaukee comparing the tool with a gas-powered vacuum at Pipeline 2026, which points at crews who want to drop fuel. For a landscaper already on M18, the strengths are the shared platform and the harness. The checks are runtime on a full day and how many HD15 packs a crew needs.
A homeowner with a big yard gets a mulching vacuum without gas. The checks are the price of two high capacity batteries and the 17.7 gal bag size.
A first time buyer on another battery brand should compare the full cost of batteries and charger before choosing. Milwaukee’s runtime figure is a maker claim, and none of the outlets above has published test results yet.
