Fire Permits Required

Fire Permits are now required for all outside burning in the Town of Sandwich. With a permit you may burn allowable materials between 5pm and 9am or if it is raining. Allowable materials are brush and untreated wood smaller than 5 inches in diameter. No building materials or pressure treated or painted wood. Keep a hose or water near by to control the fire and make sure it is completely out before you leave it.

Permits (for brush fires) may be obtained on-line here. Obtaining a Fire Permit on-line will cost you five dollars. Permits may also be obtained at the Town Hall during business hours, at the Central Fire Station or you may call the Warden at 603-387-7104.

Note: If you want a seasonal permit for cooking or a campfire contact the Warden. Remember, when you strike the match to start the fire, you are responsible for the outcome.
