The City of Carterville as well as the outlying areas are served by the dedicated firefighters of the Carterville Fire Department. These brave public servants are well trained, equipped, and ready to handle the needs of our community. Lead by Chief Ryan Wiles, his department provides the following services to our community with a 100% VOLUNTEER force:
Fire Suppression
Emergency Medical Response
Rescue – Extrication
Hazardous Conditions Response
Service Calls and Agency Assists
Public Education/Fire and Storm Safety
Community Risk Reduction and Fire Prevention
Non-Emergency Public Assistance
Community-wide Event Support
Mutual Aid for Surrounding Fire Districts
While the City has a strong and ever growing relationship with the Carterville Fire Department, they serve as an independent department and dictate they're own policies, staffing, and expenditures. For more information on Station 51, please visit their Face Book site.
