You have to remove the ashes (hence when you see fireplace tools, one of them is a shovel).
Older homes that have fireplaces sometimes have a removeable tile of sorts on the "floor" of the fireplace. When you lift that tile, you sweep the ashes into it. In my late father's house, the ashes fell through a narrow passage that was bricked and collected in a box in the basement. before Dad swept the ashes down, he always let the ashes sit overnight to cool and always checked to be sure there were no embers that could ignite a fire.
Someone else takes them out, I guess.
