A Lancaster Fire Station spokesperson said: "Upon arrival in the area it was clear that there was a significant fire within White Lund industrial estate.
"It was quickly established that this involved a number of lorries within a yard on the industrial estate.
"Lancaster Area Police also attended and assisted us by closing some roads in the area which have since reopened.
"One fire engine remained at the incident overnight and a fire investigation is now in progress."
A Lancaster Area Police spokesperson said: "At 10:10pm on Sunday 13th September we were called to reports of an explosion on Southgate White Lund Industrial Estate in Morecambe.
