In summary

Inherited from Middle French encombrer, from Old French encombrer (“to hinder, burden, encumber”), from Early Medieval Latin incombrāre (“to hinder, inconvenience, burden”), from combrus (“barricade of felled trees”), possibly from Gaulish *komberū (cf. Breton kember, Irish comar, cumar, Welsh cymmer), from Proto-Celtic *kombereti (“to bring together”) (compare Old Irish conbeir (“brings together, bears”)), from *kom- + *bereti (“to bear”), from Proto-Indo-European *bʰéreti (“to be carrying”).
Alternatively from Latin cumulus (“heap, pile”), from Proto-Indo-European *ḱewh₁- (“to swell”).
