Burn ban and no-burn zone check
Am I Under a Burn Ban?
A burn ban, fire ban, no-burn zone, and yard debris restriction can mean different things. For Florida, this page helps you check county burn ban status first, then verify local fire restrictions before burning.
Are we under a burn ban or fire ban right now?
Search your Florida county below for the current FFS-reported county burn ban status. If your county shows no active FFS-reported burn ban, local fire restrictions, yard debris rules, weather, or FFS authorization requirements may still apply.
Not in Florida? Use your state forestry agency, county emergency management office, or local fire department before burning.
Data status: Live FFS data
Updated from Florida Forest Service ArcGIS data. Pages use the latest saved site snapshot when available and may check FFS live when the snapshot is unavailable; county reporting can still lag, so verify locally before burning.
