Skagit County lifts outdoor burn ban for all unincorporated areas beginning October 26, 2022
Residential yard and land-clearing fires are again permitted in areas within unincorporated Skagit County.


Within unincorporated Skagit County, burn permits are required for piles exceeding 4 feet by 4 feet. Burn permit requests may be submitted by phone at 360-416-1840, and will be processed in the order that they are received.

Residential yard and land-clearing fires may contain only natural vegetation (leaves, grass, and tree trimmings).

Garbage, household trash, lumber, building construction waste, or demolition debris may not be burned.

Please burn responsibly. Remember: smoke, odor, or ash that unreasonably interferes with the use and enjoyment of neighboring properties is prohibited.
