Prepare for Wildfire with Ready, Set, Go!

Shingletown Volunteer Fire Department (SVFD) is assisting you in protecting you and your family.  Low cost, customized reflective address signs are available for Shingletown residents.  

Lassen Fire Safe Council continues the Shingletown Curbside Chipping Program for Shingletown residents. 

The Shingletown Curbside Chipping Program will chip material placed within 5 feet of roads or driveways.
Starting June 3, 2024, landowners should expect to have chipping services available the first week of every month expiring November 8, 2024.  

The Shasta County Fire Safe Council is providing a NO-COST chipper service to Shasta County residents with the goal of assisting homeowners in reducing hazardous fuels and improving defensible space around their homes.

If you have low hanging or fallen branches, overgrown brush, or other vegetation that needs chipping the Chipper Program is an important initiative aimed at reducing the risk of wildfires. The program provides no-cost chipping services to residents and property owners who create defensible space around their homes and clear away brush and vegetation that could potentially fuel a wildfire. The program operates throughout the year and provides an alternative to burning or hauling fire-hazardous brush.

You must register to receive the services.

CAL FIRE recently created a low cost retrofit list with a number of home retrofits that can be completed at relatively minimal cost.
