A Little About Us

The Jefferson 885 Area Volunteer Fire Company protects the Borough of Jefferson which resides 10 miles south southeast of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in Allegheny County. The Borough of Jefferson is a bedroom community that covers 17.6 square miles and has approximately 13,000 residents. The municipality is mostly residential but also has agricultural, commercial, industrial areas as well as a regional medical hospital.

The fire company is staffed by approximately 50 volunteers and operates one engine, one rescue, one aerial truck, one tanker, one special operations vehicle and 5 support vehicles out of one station. During the weekday hours of 8am and 5pm, the company is also staffed with a shift crew of two personnel.

The company responds to approximately 500 calls for service each year in the municipality and as mutual aid in other surrounding communities as well. When not responding to emergencies the company is training or providing other services to the community.
