Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMFRS) said in a social media post that crews had been tackling a fire “involving heavy goods vehicles” on Ennis Close in Wythenshawe. It was largely extinguished as of 1pm.
It said that while the severity of the fire had reduced, residents should keep their windows and doors closed.
Nearby properties were evacuated and a cordon put in place.
