BIG thanks to Southern Highlands bulk water who filled us up, one less task when we got back to station

One truck rear ended the other truck whose rear trailer broke off. One driver was transported to hospital, leaking hydraulic fluid covered with absorbent and towies did their job.

As we move into the colder months, fire agencies often see an increase in house fires as residents use their fireplaces and heaters to stay warm. With temperatures dropping it’s important you know how to stay safe.

Remember, you won’t smell smoke while you’re asleep, so make sure your smoke alarms are working. A working smoke alarm can save your life and give you and your family valuable time to escape a burning home.
