Strathalbyn Dump fire

The CFS responded to a dump fire at the Adelaide Hills Recycling Centre in Strathalbyn, Mount Lofty Rangers overnight.

CFS volunteers on 5 fire trucks, supported by landowners and heavy machinery, attended the large rubbish dump fire overnight. This fire may continue to burn for the coming days due to the large amount of materials impacted. The fire is contained to the rubbish pit and CFS will continue working with landowners to monitor the fire until the area is deemed safe.

Smoke may impact local roads in the area, and visibility may be reduced over the coming days. Please do not enter the area unless necessary to ensure your safety and that of firefighters and other emergency personnel working in the area.
