City of Huntington Fire Department

Welcome to the City of Huntington Fire Department website.

Whether you are a resident, business owner, visitor, or someone interested in joining our department, I appreciate you taking the time to learn more about who we are and the services we provide.

Since 1897, the Huntington Fire Department has proudly served our community with courage, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to protecting life and property. Today, that tradition continues through the dedication of our highly trained firefighters, officers, and civilian staff who stand ready to respond 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Our mission extends far beyond responding to emergencies. Every day, we work to prevent fires, educate our community, prepare for disasters, and build lasting partnerships with the citizens we proudly serve. We believe that public safety is built on trust, and we are committed to earning that trust through integrity, compassion, accountability, and excellence in everything we do.

As Fire Chief, I am honored to lead an organization with such a rich history and outstanding reputation. Our department is committed to embracing modern technology, advanced training, and innovative strategies while never losing sight of the values that have defined the Huntington Fire Department for generations. We will continue to invest in our people, strengthen regional partnerships, and provide the highest level of emergency services possible.

The men and women of this department are more than firefighters—they are neighbors, mentors, coaches, parents, and community leaders. Their dedication and sacrifice make Huntington a safer place to live, work, and visit, and I am proud to serve alongside each of them.

I invite you to explore our website to learn about our operations, fire prevention programs, community outreach initiatives, career opportunities, and the many services we provide. If we can assist you or your family in any way, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for your continued support of the Huntington Fire Department. It is our privilege to serve this great city, and we remain committed to protecting our community today and for generations to come.

Sincerely,

Christopher G. Blanton
Fire Chief
