Army Veteran Owned | Expert Surety Bonds Since 2004
Columbus does not set one bond for the company. It sets $7,500 for every truck that will discharge at the Trucked Waste Disposal Site on Emig Road, so a three truck fleet needs $22,500 in coverage. One bond can cover the whole fleet, and its dates have to match the permit, which ends December 31.
Waste haulers that discharge septic tank, holding tank, portable toilet and approved maintenance wastes at the City of Columbus Trucked Waste Disposal Site need a trucked waste discharge permit under Columbus Rules and Regulations 2023-01. Each permit application must include evidence of a $7,500 surety bond for each vehicle, or one bond covering all of the trucks. Local governments are exempt from the bond.

The most common mistake is quoting one flat bond for the business. Columbus Rules and Regulations 2023-01, dated September 11, 2023, require evidence of a $7,500 surety bond for each vehicle with the trucked waste discharge permit application. A hauler may file a single bond for the total number of trucks instead of separate bond forms, so a fleet of four needs $30,000 in total. Add a truck during the year and the bond total has to grow with it.
The waste hauler applying for the permit posts the bond. Local governments are exempt from the bonding requirement. The permit covers discharge at the Trucked Waste Disposal Site at 1388 Emig Road. The rule is administered by the Division of Sewerage and Drainage and cites Columbus City Code chapters 1145 and 1147. Accepted loads include domestic septic tank, sanitary holding tank and portable toilet waste, plus maintenance wastes such as sewer line, pump station, stormwater control and car wash pit cleanings from generators inside the city's pretreatment boundaries, which need prior approval. Fats, oils and grease are prohibited, and every load must travel with a completed city manifest.
The permit fee and other charges are billed to the hauler's utility account. Under the rule, charges unpaid after 30 days lead to suspension, and an account more than 60 days delinquent is subject to permit revocation and collection of the surety bond.
An application fee of $40 for each permitted vehicle is added to the hauler's utility billing account. Permits run from issuance until December 31 of the year the vehicle is permitted, and bond dates must coincide with permit dates. For vehicles added during the year the fee is pro rated by the quarter the permit is issued: $40 in the first quarter, $30 in the second, $20 in the third and $10 in the fourth.
Columbus Public Health registers septage haulers under Ohio Administrative Code 3701-29 and requires a surety bond form for each type of work conducted. That registration is handled separately from the discharge permit, so confirm with each office which filings apply to your operation.
$7,500 for each vehicle you are permitting. Two trucks need $15,000 and five trucks need $37,500. You can file one bond for the full amount instead of a bond form for each truck.
No. Rules and Regulations 2023-01 exempt local governments from the bonding requirement. Private haulers post it.
The permit runs from issuance until December 31 of the year the vehicle is permitted, unless it is suspended or revoked. Bond dates must coincide with permit dates, so renew both together each year.
Unpaid charges. The rule says charges unpaid after 30 days lead to suspension, and accounts delinquent more than 60 days are subject to permit revocation and collection of the surety bond.
The fee for a vehicle permitted in the third quarter, July 1 to September 30, is $20. You also need to add $7,500 of bond coverage for that truck.
No. Columbus Public Health registers septage haulers under Ohio Administrative Code 3701-29 and uses its own surety bond form for each type of work. The discharge permit bond covers use of the city's Trucked Waste Disposal Site. Confirm with each office which filings apply to you.
