How do I get a burn permit to burn outside of the city limits?
Burn permits for burning outside the city limits can be obtained at the Apex Fire Stations, or on the Department of Forestry Services’ website at www.dfr.state.nc.us. They can be issued for 30 days. If you are doing a large burn, it is suggested that you alert the Fire Department in advance at (919) 362- 4001, and of course, if the fire gets out of hand, call 9-1-1.
