Residents may request collection of yard and tree brush by Maintenance Department crews on an as needed basis for a fee of $50.00. All brush 
must be placed at the curb with all trimmed ends facing the same direction (towards the street) for quicker handling by the road crew.
***Residents must call 513-791-8447 to have a work order started for the brush pick up or simply fill out an online Service Request.
Fees will be billed to the property owner after the brush is cleared. To pay for this service online with a Visa or Mastercard, Click Here.
Sycamore Township offers a scheduled monthly Brush Chipping Program for residents providing them the opportunity to drop off tree and brush trimmings behind the Township Administration Building free of charge. Residents are asked to bring their brush and limbs to the rear of the Township Administration building at 8540 Kenwood Road where maintenance personnel will assist in the unloading and chipping of the material. This program normally runs the first Saturday of each month from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Between mid-October and mid-December, the Maintenance Department picks up leaves along the Township streets (no bagging required during this time). Leaves should be brought to the curb or to the berm of the road if no curb exists. Please make sure leaves are not placed in the ditch line as this will clog the storm sewer system. Please do not mix any other yard waste items in with the leaves (such as grass, twigs, or flowers). Crews service each street weekly, but during heavy volume periods, in the event of a snow/ice emergency, or due to equipment breakdown, it may take longer to complete a Township wide sweep. Residents may call our Maintenance Department at (513) 791-8447 to find out when their street was last serviced.
2025 curbside leaf collection is scheduled to be from October 14th to December 15th.
“Storm Damage Condition” – applies only when officially declared by Maintenance Superintendent
The Sycamore Township Maintenance Supervisor must officially declare whether a “storm damage condition” has occurred. When “storm damage condition” has been declared, residents must call 791-8447, or fill out an online Service Request, within two (2) working days after the storm to have the branches picked up at no charge. The storm damage should then be placed at the curb within two (2) weeks of the storm.
Residents who do not call to be placed on the list may bag sticks and brush for pickup by their garbage collection service or take advantage of the Township’s free monthly brush chipping service for residents on the first Saturday of the month from April through December.
The Township will offer Christmas Tree chipping
at two drop off sites from 12/26/2025 – 01/18/2026.
