About


All Scottsdale Fire engine and ladders are staffed with skilled emergency medical technicians and paramedics who provide advanced life support skills and fight fires. Specialty teams allow the Scottsdale Fire Department to deal with hazardous materials emergencies, provide technical rescues to individuals trapped in swift water, confined spaces or in mountain locations, and battle aircraft fires. The extensive training and expertise of our members results in the fire department providing quality and cost-efficient services to our community.

Beyond providing emergency services, Scottsdale Fire Department works to prevent future fires and accidents. Our responsibilities range from fire code enforcement, arson investigations, and fire prevention activities to fire and life safety education programs for children, families, and seniors.

Scottsdale currently has 14 fire stations (with more planned for the future), 13 Engine Companies, 4 Ladder Companies, 4 Brush Trucks, 1 Hazardous Material Response Vehicle and more! Scottsdale Fire employs approximately 265 people, of which, 240 are firefighters.

You are welcome to visit Scottsdale fire stations from 8 a.m. - 5 p.m., any day of the week, to meet the firefighters, get your blood pressure checked, or pick-up safety information. Fire stations are staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. However, crews may be away from the station responding to emergency calls or off-site training at various times during the day.
