Loveland, Ohio – The 2023 spring brush pickup program will begin on Monday, March 20. Brush must be placed in the grass near the roadside no later than Sunday night, March 19. Public Works will collect the brush for approximately two weeks.
Loveland’s Guidelines
The following are guidelines established for the brush pick-up program:
- Brush must be placed at the curb or edge of roadway. Do not place brush in the roadway, gutter, ditches, or on sidewalks.
- Do not block fire hydrants.
- Please remove basketball hoops from sidewalks, cul-de-sacs, the end of your driveway, etc. In many neighborhoods, basketball hoops make it difficult for our leaf/brush crews to navigate the route and make turns.
- Limbs cannot exceed 10 inches in diameter at the cut section.
- Limbs should be placed at the curb with the cut section facing the street and all limbs should be facing the same direction. This makes it easier and faster to handle.
- No leaves, pine needles, grass clippings, bamboo, ornamental grass, or other yard waste will be collected.
- Small twigs and sticks should be bundled with twine in bundles 12 inches in diameter. Twigs or sticks can also be placed in a container at the curb, but no other yard waste should be in the containers. No loose piles of sticks and debris, please.
