Grease traps and Ostrander’s food service businesses
Ostrander is a village in western Delaware County's Scioto Township, laid out in 1852 and named for railroad official Shelemiah Ostrander. The CCC&I Railroad was the village's lifeline for much of its history, and an old railroad bridge over Blues Creek still stands, though the tracks closed in 1971.
The village has grown quickly, from about 400 residents in 2000 to more than 1,000 in 2020, and it provides its own sewer service. Food service here is small scale, so most kitchens use compact indoor traps.
Grease rules come from the village. Keep the hauler's service record and disposal manifest from every visit, and ask for a full pump-out rather than skimming, since small units lose capacity quickly when solids are left behind. Grease trap pumping on a regular schedule is the simplest way to stay ahead.
