Assignment Upgraded to Box Alarm in West Caln
By HBFC
November 3, 2025
At 13:44 this afternoon, Station 33 was alerted for an engine assisting Company 35 for a reported dumpster fire in box area 3524. E331, E35, and Chief 33 made the initial response. Chester County Fire Board advised Chief 33 that flames from the dumpster was melting the siding off of the nearby residence, and the box was filled.
E331 and Chief 33 arrived and confirmed the report, stretched two lines and began suppression efforts. Additional incoming units checked for extension and completed overhaul. Fortunately, the exterior fire had not extended into the interior of the residence, and the assignment was scaled back. Honey Brook units remained on-scene for 1.5 hours before being released. Chief 33 held the Cambridge Road Command, this was the third response of the day for the 33 house.
