I have a couple burn piles but one giant one in particular. Just waiting for winter. Once there's snow on the ground we don't need a permit. Just have to call it in.

Oh and happy birthday!

I think a lot of us have one (or so) of those piles :lol: We took care of a huge one last year for the same celebration and it was a hit. It also freed up my garden which we didn't end up having time to plant this year anyways :hide

Thank you for the Bday wishes! I don't feel any older :lol:

Y'all gotta get a burn permit? The only restrictions on us is a county burn ban when it's dry. A few good rains and they lift the ban. We can burn any time and no permit.

Oh and the fire department has the right to come inspect it once you call it in. There's all kinds of rules about size and you can only burn certain things and blah blah... They like to show up and shut people down because they're bored.

I have one of those same piles @samssimonsays ! I keep meaning to get a burn permit but it seems to decrease in size over the winter, I guess all that stuff is composting underneath. I suppose at some point I will get a round "tuit" and do the deed.

We have a few of those piles but I always leave one for bird habitat. Nov-Apr we don't need a permit but have to check that it is a burn day, for air quality mostly. We would be STUPID to burn here in the summer. They would put us in jail and rightly so. Also can't run lawnmowers or anything that could hit a rock and spark after 10:00 AM in the summer.
