    Is Loveland’s leaf collection schedule a climate change denier? Notwithstanding, Loveland’s leaf collection begins next week

    Loveland, Ohio – Notwithstanding climate change, global warming, and changing weather patterns, the City’s Fall Leaf Collection schedule will begin Monday, October 10. Fall colors have barely arrived.

    The schedule has been out of sync with reality for years, but this one is a whopper.

    Leaf collection is performed by a city crew using mechanical equipment similar to a vacuum cleaner. Residents are instructed to rake leaves to a place near the street or curb. City Hall says to not place leaf piles on the sidewalk, gutters, ditches, roads, or blocking fire hydrants. 

    After the initial scheduled collection date, residents may go to City Hall to receive a free voucher to drop-off a load of yard waste to Evans Landscaping. The City of Loveland has an agreement with Evans for a year-round residential yard waste drop-off program.

    If leaf or brush piles do not comply with the below instructions and are left, or piles do not appear until after the scheduled collections, residents may go to City Hall to receive a voucher to drop-off a load of yard waste to Evans for free.

    Loveland, Ohio – The 2017 Fall brush collection program will begin on Monday, November 13, and will run for five weeks. Brush must be placed at the curb no later than Sunday night of the scheduled week of each collection.

    November 13: Area of the City that has a Monday trash pickup.

    November 20: Area of the City that has a Tuesday trash pickup.

    November 27: Area of the City that has a Wednesday trash pickup.

    December 4: Area of the City that has a Thursday trash pickup.

    December 11: Area of the City that has a Friday trash pickup.

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

    1. Limbs cannot exceed 10” in diameter at the cut section.
    2. Small twigs and sticks should be bundled with twine in bundles 12” 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. Please, no loose piles of sticks and debris.
    3. 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.
    4. 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.
    5. No leaves, pine needles, grass clippings, or other yard waste will be collected.

    Any material not meeting these requirements cannot be collected and will be left at the curb.

    Wood chips will be available again this year. Anyone in the City who would like a full load of wood chips should call 513-707-1439.

    Outside the regular pick-up schedule, residents are encouraged to come to City Hall to get a free voucher to drop off any yard waste to Evans Landscaping.
