Grease traps and Reynoldsburg’s food service businesses
Reynoldsburg's older business district runs along Main Street, which follows US 40, the historic National Road, while the Brice Road corridor carries most of the city's chain restaurants and retail. The city calls itself the birthplace of the tomato, and its Tomato Festival in Huber Park marked its 60th year in 2025.
Older buildings in Olde Reynoldsburg tend to have compact kitchens and indoor traps that need grease trap cleaning once buildup returns. Along Brice Road, large restaurants and older shopping centers more often rely on outdoor interceptors, and some were installed before the current Columbus rule that each new interceptor serve only one food service operation.
Reynoldsburg contracts with Columbus for sewer service, so local kitchens follow the Columbus FOG Reduction Program and keep a written grease management plan on site. The Tomato Festival brings three days of food and crowds to Huber Park each August, so vendors and nearby restaurants should plan pumping around that weekend.

Reynoldsburg grease trap requirements
- Local authority
- Reynoldsburg contracts with Columbus for sewer service, so the Columbus FOG Reduction Program, run by Columbus Water & Power, applies.
- Pumping interval
- Columbus does not set one interval for every kitchen. Cleaning should follow the manufacturer's instructions and how fast grease builds up, and new or remodeled kitchens need interceptors designed to go no more than 30 days between services for concrete units, or 90 days for units made of materials that resist degradation.
- Fullness limit
- The city recommends cleaning when an interceptor nears 25 percent of its capacity, before it goes past that point. Every cleaning must remove the entire contents.
- Records
- Keep a written FOG Best Management Plan and a cleaning log for each interceptor on site, for at least three years. The hauler must record the date, the grease and solids removed and the condition after every cleaning.
