As you’re getting into that spring cleaning mode 🌱—don’t forget about your driveway

Print RSS Facebook Twitter RSS

By Clay County Fire and Rescue
April 6, 2026

We love seeing folks cleaning up limbs, brush, and getting things looking good this time of year… but it also makes a big difference for us.

Fire trucks need:
• 12–14 feet of width
• 13’6” of vertical clearance
• Room to turn around

Low-hanging branches, overgrown brush, and tight driveways can slow us down—or stop us from getting to you altogether.

We don’t think about it until we need it… and by then, every second matters.

Take a few minutes while you’re out in the yard:
✔ Trim back limbs
✔ Clear brush from the edges
✔ Make sure we’ve got a clear path in

If we can’t reach you, we can’t help you.
