The county's current restriction

Brunswick County's official homepage displays a countywide burn-ban notice effective Thursday, October 29, 2026, at noon. The county says dry and windy conditions have created a significant wildfire risk.

The notice is county-specific. It does not establish the rule for another locality, and the bounded homepage item does not supply an expiration date.

Check before any outdoor burning

Residents should open the county's current notice and follow fire and emergency officials' instructions before any outdoor burning. A later official notice controls if the restriction is amended or lifted.

This brief does not interpret exceptions, enforcement terms or fire-code requirements that are not stated in the displayed county item. For an activity-specific question, use the county's official contact route.
