Fire Department

A Volunteer Fire Department

Fire EngineThe Provincetown Fire Department is one of only two remaining volunteer fire departments left on Cape Cod.

We are responsible for all phases of fire prevention, fire protection, and EMS services in Provincetown.

Our Goals

  • To provide our volunteers with the best equipment possible to allow them to do their job safely
  • To remain as a volunteer department as long as possible
  • To continue to provide the citizens of Provincetown with the best possible fire and rescue protection

Important Reminder: House Numbers

Make sure your house is clearly marked with numbers that are well-lit at night. This helps both police and fire crews find your house quickly in an emergency.
