    Loveland’s Spring brush removal program

    Loveland, Ohio – The Spring brush pickup program has begun. Brush must be placed in the grass near the roadside. Public Works will collect brush for approximately two weeks.

    Guidelines

    The following are guidelines established for the brush pick-up program:

    • Brush must be placed in the grass behind 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 crews to navigate the route and make turns.
    • Limbs cannot exceed 10 inches in diameter at the cut section.
    • Limbs should be placed 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.  These items clog or bind up the chipper.
    • Small twigs and sticks should be tied with twine in bundles 12 inches in diameter. Twigs or sticks can also be placed in a container, but no other yard waste should be in the containers. No loose piles of sticks and debris, please.

    • Any material not meeting these requirements cannot be collected and will be left.
    • Outside the regular pick-up schedule, residents are encouraged to visit City Hall to get a free voucher to drop off any yard waste to Evans Landscaping.
    • Wood chips may be available. Anyone in the city who would like a load of wood chips should call (513) 774-3067.
