When firefighters arrived, the property was already engulfed in flames and there was a risk of the fire reaching other areas of the establishment and neighboring buildings.

Fighting the flames allowed the fire to be restricted to the stock area, preventing it from spreading to nearby properties. Firefighters also inspected neighboring buildings and removed flammable objects from the walls near the warehouse. The team went to the scene in an alternative vehicle, equipped with a firefighting kit. Water trucks from the Pedreiras and Trizidela do Vale city halls were also activated, in addition to a truck from the 6th Military Fire Brigade, from Bacabal, which helped in the final phase of the incident. Also according to the Fire Department, the Equatorial Energia concessionaire was also called to disconnect the area's electricity grid. The Fire Department reported that the repair of the truck from the 13th Independent Military Fire Company is already being arranged. During the service, the firefighters discovered that the establishment was operating without a license from the corporation and did not have the mandatory fire prevention and safety systems. The damage was restricted to the affected warehouse. The stock of construction materials and two vehicles sustained serious damage, while a third vehicle was preserved. The owner of the establishment was interviewed at the scene, but was unable to say how the fire started. The cause of the fire was not disclosed.
