🔥 OHIO OPEN BURNING RESTRICTION 🔥

A reminder that Ohio’s seasonal open-burning restrictions begin October 1 and continue through November 30.

Outside municipal limits, Ohio law prohibits open-air burning of wood, brush, weeds, grass, or rubbish between 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. during October and November.

This restriction is about open burning—it does not automatically prohibit legal recreational or cooking fires that meet the applicable requirements.

When in doubt, check before you burn!

This is a reminder that Ohio currently has a burn ban in place during certain hours due to increased fire risk.

Under Ohio law, open burning is prohibited between 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM in March, April, May, October, and November. These restrictions are in place because dry conditions and spring winds can cause fires to spread rapidly.

This includes burning of:
• Brush
• Leaves
• Yard waste
• Debris

Even small fires can quickly get out of control and threaten homes, fields, and emergency responders.

Local Fire Departments have already responded to several preventable fires this season. Your cooperation helps keep our firefighters, residents, and property safe.

If you see an unattended or unsafe fire, please report it.
