Dumpster Fire

 Yeah, that's right. That's affirmative. It's 20 or 30 feet from the house, and that's it. No other, nothing else is involved.

 Okay, sounds good. We're heading back to the station. You have 201, and dispatch isn't monitoring, so whenever you guys clear, just give it back to them. See you later.

I don't believe so. It's going to be probably just a 20-foot enclosed trailer or, you know, like high-walled trailer.

 It's mostly wood in here and, like, scraps. But, yeah, I don't know if this warrants an investigator call. I don't think so.

 Okay, received. It didn't, no exposures or didn't get close to the house or anything. So, I think we're good.

Engine 901 from fire dispatch. The address, 1802 Basin Ledge, is the caller's address.

 She said it was across the street, like behind the tree line.

 Received, dispatch. We found it. It's going to be a dumpster fire.

 We're going to be pulling a rack line and extinguishing it.

 This is not going to be a house. This is going to be just the dumpster.

 If we could have the second-end engine continue, I think all other units can cancel.
