Branches, brush piles and storm debris, hauled away
After a storm, a big trim or a weekend clearing out bush honeysuckle, you end up with a brush pile taller than you are. Cities around Dayton only take yard waste in small, tied bundles, and logs and thick limbs are too heavy for those limits.
Zach's Pack Hauling cuts down small trees and loads limbs, brush, logs and yard waste, then hauls the whole pile away. We rake up the leftover twigs and leaves so your lawn isn't left with a dead patch where the pile sat.

How tree and brush removal works
Photo of the pile or tree
Text 326-900-8944 a photo with something for scale, like a person or a car. For a tree, tell us roughly how tall it is and what's near it.
Firm price
Priced by trailer space, with the number set before we load.
We cut and load
We cut down small trees, then load limbs, brush and logs. No bundling or cutting to 4 feet needed.
Raked clean
We rake up the loose debris left behind.
Before we arrive
- Pile everything in one spot close to where the trailer can park, if you can.
- Keep rocks, dirt and trash out of the brush pile.
- Tell us about big logs or thick trunk pieces. They're heavy and affect the price.
- Watch out for poison ivy in cleared brush. Tell us if it's in the pile.
- Small tree coming down? Tell us how tall it is and how close it is to the house, fence, cars or wires.
What affects brush and yard waste removal cost
- Size of the pile
- Small trees to cut down (height and what's around them)
- Logs and thick trunk sections (heavy)
- How far the pile is from the trailer
- Loose leaves versus bundled brush
Yard waste is priced by trailer space, from our $115 minimum up to a full load from $540. Dense logs can cost more than light brush. You get a firm price first.

Free yard waste options around Dayton
We'd rather you hire us because it makes sense, not because nobody told you about the free options. Rules below are from official city and county pages. Check the linked page before you set anything out, since programs change.
Dayton bulk pickup
Dayton takes yard waste on scheduled bulk days if it's tied in bundles no larger than 4 feet long and 18 inches across, at 25 pounds or less per bundle. Keep it separate from other bulk items.

Free for Kettering residents with proof of residency. It takes brush, limbs and trimmings up to 6 feet long and 6 inches thick. No grass clippings, stumps, root balls, dirt or rocks. The city itself doesn't pick up yard debris.

Greene County Environmental Services in Xenia runs a yard waste drop-off for Greene County households. In Fairborn, leaves and clippings can also go in your regular Rumpke cart.

Those free options are great for a few bundles. Call us when the pile is too big to bundle, there are logs too thick for drop-off limits, or you don't have a truck to make the trips.
Storm cleanup safety
- Stay far away from any limb touching or near a power line. Call your electric utility.
- Limbs still hanging in a tree after a storm can fall without warning.
- Cut logs are much heavier than they look. Roll them, don't lift.
- Large trees, trees leaning toward a house and anything near power lines are jobs for a certified arborist or your electric utility, not a hauler.
Where brush and yard waste go
Clean brush and wood go to a facility that accepts yard waste rather than to trash wherever possible.

Small tree and brush removal FAQ
How much does brush and yard waste removal cost?
It's priced by trailer space, from our $115 minimum up to a full load from $540. Logs and thick trunk pieces weigh more, so they can cost more. Text a photo to 326-900-8944 for a firm price.
Will the City of Dayton pick up tree branches?
Yes, on scheduled bulk days, if they're tied in bundles no more than 4 feet long and 18 inches across, at 25 pounds or less each.
Where can Kettering residents take brush?
To Kettering's Yard Debris Center, which is free with proof of residency. Limbs can be up to 6 feet long and 6 inches thick. Stumps, root balls and grass clippings aren't accepted.
Do you cut down trees?
Yes, small ones. We cut down small trees and haul the wood away with the rest of the pile. We don't take down large trees or trees close to houses or power lines. For those, call a certified, insured arborist, and call your electric utility about any tree near a line. Send a photo and we'll tell you which side of that line yours is on.
Do you grind stumps?
No. Stump grinding isn't part of this service. A tree service or stump grinding company handles that. We can haul away the wood and brush once the tree is down.
Do I have to bundle or bag it?
No. We load loose brush, logs and piles as they are. Bundling is only required for city curbside pickup.
