Trash compactor fire in Buffalo Grove, 3-7-17
On Tuesday, March 7, 2017, firefighters from Buffalo Grove were dispatched to 2500 Millbrook Drive after a fire broke out in a trash compactor near a loading dock. The blaze was initially contained to the dumpster outside the building, but thick smoke quickly spread into the adjacent warehouse. To better access the source of the fire, the fire department called for a wrecker to move the dumpster away from the structure. Once the dumpster was clear, crews used water to soak down the visible materials, but an attempt to dump the contents proved unsuccessful, as they wanted to make sure no hidden embers remained.
The location is situated near the border with Lincolnshire, and the first responders on the scene included Lincolnshire-Riverwoods Fire Department Truck 51. Several units from Buffalo Grove also arrived to assist with the operation. The incident highlighted the importance of quick action and coordination between neighboring departments.
Multiple photos captured the scene, showing the heavy wrecker in action, firefighters using hoses to douse the flames, and the equipment used by both the fire department and the wrecker service. These images provide a clear look at the effort required to contain the fire and prevent further damage. For more pictures from the event, visit Shapirophotography.net.
