Can I burn off?

These translated brochures and videos are developed by the Country Fire Authority for the state of Victoria.

These resources explain the rules for burning garden waste or rubbish during a fire danger period or on a Total Fire Ban day in Victoria. During a fire danger period, you need a written permit and must follow all permit conditions. Someone must stay with the fire at all times, and you must completely put it out before leaving. On a Total Fire Ban day, all burn-offs are prohibited, even if you have a permit.
