Welcome to the Burkburnett Volunteer Fire Department Website!  Did you know your fire department is 100% volunteer?  The dedicated professional's you see answering fire calls in and around town are all citizen's of Burkburnett that put themselves in harms way to provide this service to you!  Our volunteers work hand and hand with the Burkburnett EMS Department who provide two Paramedics 24/7 to handle any emergency that may arise!  Between your professional volunteer firefighters, and the fulltime staff of the Burkburnett EMS and Police Department's, Burkburnett's Emergency Response Services stand ready to serve you, your family, friends and all those who visit our great city.

Please remember to slow down and provide enough room for emergency vehicles!
