Just an FYI, leaves are crucial for many beneficial insects to survive the winter.

If you would still like to mulch some, a mower will easily chop them up. Especially good if you have a bag attachment.

I don’t have a mower. I leave the leaves through spring and then begin composting them. I have more leaves than pile though.

That’s great! If you have a string trimmer, or plan to get one, you can fill a trash can with leaves and chop them with the trimmer.
