2021 Puyallup Cold Storage Fire

In the early hours of August 21, 2021, a three-alarm commercial fire broke out at the Puyallup Cold Storage Facility. The facility contained 1000 lbs. of anhydrous ammonia refrigerant which made the task of extinguishing the fire more difficult, dangerous and dynamic. Multiple organizations were involved in the response effort including fire crews from several jurisdictions, Emergency Operations Center, Puyallup PD, and multiple personnel from various departments of the City of Puyallup.
