Brush Pickup Service
Residents, please be mindful of the rules related to brush pickup:
Brush will be picked up twice a month only during the months March through October. Limbs and brush ARE NOT to be placed out for collection November, December, January or February.
Limbs should be laid out in an orderly manner with all limbs positioned perpendicular to the street with the cut ends facing the same direction.
No stumps or root balls will be accepted.
Limbs resulting from a private contractor doing tree work will not be accepted.
Absolutely no foreign materials can be mixed with the brush. It damages equipment and hurts employees! If such materials are observed, the brush will not be collected.
Brush should not be placed near a parked car or a fire hydrant or in any location that might block visibility within the rights-of-way.
Brush may not be placed in the street or on a sidewalk.
The collection of brush materials at any single address cannot take any longer than 15 minutes to collect. If the quantity of brush at any single address would take longer than 15 minutes, the occupant of the address must arrange for a private contractor to haul the materials away.
Twigs will not be picked up. They are considered yard waste and should be commingled with household waste and set out with the regular garbage pickup by Rumpke on Fridays.
PLEASE REMEMBER:
Brush materials are collected as a service to our residents – and we ask that this service not be abused! Many times we are collecting limbs, tree trunks and tree stumps that are of an unreasonable size and weight. Oftentimes we are collecting materials that were placed at the curb by a private contractor. This practice is not permissible! Contractors are responsible for hauling away all remnants of the trees and stumps they take down.

Repair work on the Riddle Road culvert and sinkhole will start in early September. The Village has been able to obtain emergency funding from both Hamilton County and the Ohio Public Works Commission to help offset the expenses of these repairs.

Much needed repairs to this street will begin during the month of September.
