HOLLAND (WHTC-AM/FM) — Zeeland Fire Chief Ross Tibbets says his department is investigating an overnight fire at the Zeeland Laundromat, at 118 E Washington Ave. No one was hurt, he said. Firefighters were called just before midnight Sunday, March 28, 2021, and found a smoke-filled building with a dryer on fire.
“Crews did an excellent job getting in there and getting it knocked down,” he said. “Essentially, it was a dryer fire that had started to extend into the wall.”
He said while the cause of this fire is under investigation, it’s a good time to remind anyone with a dryer at home to make sure the lint trap and the vent are regularly cleared of lint, which is a common dryer-fire hazard.
