A 'substantial' building fire led to the closure of a main road last night.
Police closed the A354 at Tarrant Hinton near Blandford as firefighters dealt with the blaze.
The fire affected a unit at Brixeys business park on Blandford Road.
Dorset Police were informed of the incident at just after 5pm.
Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service crews tackled the blaze.
The service said 10 fire engines - about 50 firefighters - attended the fire, which involved 2,000 pallets.
The fire also spread to a single storey empty storage building, a spokesman added.
Crews used ground monitors, hose reel jets, foam and hydrants to extinguish the fire.
