A blaze deep inside an Etobicoke waste transfer station required 34 fire trucks and over 100 firefighters to extinguish overnight Wednesday, according to Toronto Fire.

The three-alarm fire, which was upgraded to a "technical" five-alarm fire because of the number of trucks and firefighters deployed, happened at a waste transfer station on Disco Road near Carlingview Drive, a spokesperson for Toronto Fire told CBC News. Crews were called just before 11 p.m. and stayed through the night.

The fire is now out and no injuries were reported, the spokesperson said. The extent of the damage is unclear, but Toronto Fire will provide an update later Thursday morning.

The province's Ministry of Environment and Toronto Emergency Management have been notified. They will check on nearby Mimiko Creek
