Richford Volunteer Fire Company Inc. - Firehouses on Waymarking.com

"Want to join? Wondering what we can offer you? Just stop by one of our monthly meetings. They are held the LAST THURSDAY of every month at 6pm at the Richford Fire Hall."
"We respond to fires of multiple origins including house fires, barn fires, brush fires, and the like. We have a team of interior firefighters to provide rescue and fire suppression inside a burning building. Richford also provides mutual aide to fire departments within Tioga County as well as Tompkins, Cortland, and Broome counties...Car accidents make up the majority of our calls. On an average year 80% of the calls in our district are car related. Route 79 and 38 can be extremely hazardous in the winter due to freezing conditions. The town is a intersection for major commerce, causing a large amount of hazards to come into our community. Through training and our equipment we are prepared to handle hazardous material calls.We are no strangers to flooding. We have aided in flood relief efforts in 2006 and 2011. In 2013 Rt 79W had flooded and most of the hamlet of Richford, causing many roads to be closed for more than 24 hours. We do provide assistants to those who have their basements flooded."
