I have an old building on my property; will the Fire Department burn it down for me?

This used to be an endeavor used by the Fire Department to practice skills and assist homeowners in removing deteriorating structures. Due to the passage of the Clean Air Act, this is a practice, which is no longer conducted by the fire department. SC DHEC regulates the Clean Air Act. Homeowners who wish to have a structure burned, should contact a DHEC representative at 843-846-1030. After the removal of certain materials, the building can be rendered safe for burning. However it is usually less expensive to demolish the building by other means.
