Your checklist
  • Get low

    Smoke is poisonous and more deadly than flames.

    If you breathe smoke for more than a few breaths it can kill you.

  • Be fast

    A house fire can kill you in less than three minutes.

    Don't spend time trying to save possessions.

  • Close doors

    A closed door buys you time.

    It slows down the spread of fire, giving you more time to get to safety.

  • Get out - stay out!

    People have died by going back into a fire.

    Don't leave the meeting place to go back inside for any reason.

Final update - Onehunga industrial fire

Final update - Onehunga industrial fire

Fire and Emergency New Zealand has handed the site of the industrial fire in Onehunga back to the owner.

Two fire trucks spent the morning checking for, and dampening down, hotspots, but once this was completed around lunchtime, the crews left the scene.

Victoria St has been re-opened to the public. Fire and Emergency thanks the public for their patience and consideration while this road has been closed.

Fire investigators have been on the scene today continuing their investigations.
