Fire Plan

What should you do? Leaving early or preparing to stay? One of the most important things to do before a bush fire is to decide what you’ll do if one should start. Are you prepared with the right equipment?

There are simple things you can do around your home to prepare it for a bush fire.

• Trim trees and shrubs

• Mow grass & remove cuttings

• Remove wood piles, mulch, etc

• Clear debris & leaves from gutters

• Prepare a water source & hose

If there is a fire in your area you will find it's Alert Level on the NSW RFS website and in the ‘Fires Near Me’ app. You need to keep track of the Alert Level so you know what you should do.

In a bush fire, it’s important that you stay up-to-date on conditions in your area. You could lose power and telecommunications.

Do not rely on just once source of information.
