Public Safety Notice: Quarry Road Fire Two

The Quarry Road Fire Two in the Lakewood Estates/Bricklanding area is outside the Town of Shallotte and outside the Town’s jurisdiction.

Shallotte Fire and Shallotte Police assisted during the initial response. Town of Shallotte personnel and resources have since cleared the incident, and no Town assets are currently assigned to the fire.

We continue to receive questions regarding containment, smoke conditions, fire activity, and the current status of the incident. Because the Town is no longer operating on the fire, the Shallotte Fire Department and Town Hall do not have current operational information to provide.

Calling the Shallotte Fire Department or Town Hall will not provide additional information regarding containment percentages, smoke conditions, fire behavior, or ongoing fire operations.

The North Carolina Forest Service remains responsible for fire operations, with public information also being provided through Brunswick County. For the most current and reliable information, residents are encouraged to use the following official sources:

🐾🚒 Happy National Fire Pup Day! 🚒🐾

Today, we’re taking a moment to remember a very special member of our fire family — Valor. ❤️🖤

Valor served as our beloved fire dog for more than 13 years, becoming so much more than a four-legged member of the department. She was a familiar face at events, a loyal companion to our firefighters, and a friend to so many in our community.

We lost sweet Valor in 2023, but the paw prints she left behind will never fade. 🐾❤️

We sure do miss you, sweet girl. Thank you for 13+ years of loyalty, love and service. You will forever be a part of our fire department family and forever in our hearts. 🐶🚒❤️

Happy National Fire Pup Day, Valor!
Run free, sweet girl. 🐾🌈

Celebrate Safely This Independence Day!

As we get ready to celebrate the Fourth of July, the Town of Shallotte reminds everyone that fireworks can be dangerous—especially during the current DRY CONDITIONS.

Fireworks can quickly ignite dry grass and vegetation, leading to dangerous fires, and they can also cause serious injuries to both children and adults. To help protect our community, please do not discharge fireworks within the Town of Shallotte.

Instead, gather your family and enjoy one of the area's professional fireworks displays:
🎇 Southport
🎇 Ocean Isle Beach

By leaving fireworks to the professionals, you're helping keep our neighborhoods, first responders, and community safe while still enjoying an incredible Independence Day celebration.

Thank you for doing your part to protect the Town of Shallotte. We wish everyone a safe, fun, and happy Fourth of July! ❤️🤍💙

🚫🔥 BURN BAN IN EFFECT – TOWN OF SHALLOTTE 🔥🚫

A burn ban is currently in effect and includes the Town of Shallotte.

We appreciate everyone's cooperation as we work together to protect lives, property, and our natural resources. Stay safe! 🇺🇸🚒

Burn Ban Now in Effect 🚫🔥

The Brunswick County Fire Marshal is issuing a burn ban for the unincorporated areas within Brunswick County as of 5 pm. Monday, June 8, 2026. Read online: https://ow.ly/eIrm50Z92vl

Current and future weather forecast models indicate conditions that are not favorable to open burning, particularly due to increasing drought conditions and fire danger risks for this week.

All burning within 100 feet of any structure is banned within the unincorporated areas of Brunswick County. An unincorporated area is an area not within a city or town’s limits. If you are located in a city or town, contact your local municipal official related to the burn ban.

The burn ban does not apply to any open burning permits issued by the N.C. Forest Service.

All open burning of natural vegetation outside 100 feet of an occupied dwelling requires a permit from the North Carolina Forest Service. In addition, the NC Dept of Environmental Quality may require additional permits for certain types and locations of burning.

The burn ban will remain in place until conditions improve. Brunswick County will send out a notice when it is lifted and/or to communicate any necessary safety updates related to the burn ban. For questions about the burn ban, contact the Brunswick County Fire Marshal’s Office at 910.253.2041 or visit BrunswickCountyNC.gov/FireMarshal

Visit Brunswick County’s Burn Ban / Open Burning webpage for more information about local burn bans and open burning regulations: https://ow.ly/noJ350XhcjS
