Grease traps and Ashville’s food service businesses
Ashville is a Pickaway County village that claims the world's oldest traffic light. Designed by local resident Teddy Boor, it directed traffic downtown until 1982 and is now on display at Ohio's Small Town Museum on Long Street.
The Village of Ashville's Wastewater Department runs local sewer collection and treatment, and the village publishes its own guidance on the problem with grease in sewer lines. Grease rules for Ashville kitchens come from the village, not from Columbus.
Ashville sits near the US 23 corridor between Columbus and Circleville, so traffic heading to the Pumpkin Show each October passes close by. Small indoor traps in village kitchens do best with grease trap pumping on a fixed schedule, with the service record kept on file.

Ashville grease trap requirements
- Local authority
- Ashville is outside the Columbus sewer contract area. Sewer service comes from the Village of Ashville's Wastewater Department, which sets the local requirements for grease interceptors.
- Pumping interval
- Confirm the required pumping interval with the village before setting a schedule. Interceptor sizing here follows the Ohio Plumbing Code, and the provider can measure the tank to suggest a starting point.
- Fullness limit
- Many central Ohio sewer authorities, including Columbus and the Delaware County district, use 25 percent of the tank's depth as the point to clean. Ask the provider to measure grease and solids at every visit.
- Records
- Keep the service record and disposal manifest from every pumping for at least three years, so you can show a maintenance history if the village or a health inspector asks.
