Help Support your local fire dept.
About us
The Petrolia Volunteer Fire Department (PVFD) provides firefighting services to the Petrolia Fire Protection District (PFPD) and its outlying areas. We are the first response to wildland, structure, vehicle accidents, medical, and community service calls in our area.
The PVFD has also collaborated with members of the local community to help make Petrolia a nationally recognized Firewise Community. Petrolia has been Firewise since 2011 and has maintained this status through 2015. PVFD continues to assist with the implementation of the community’s Firewise Action Plan. Firewise actions include those things that will reduce the community’s vulnerability to damage from wildfire.
Our response vehicles include one 2,000-gallon water tender, two Type-3 engines, a Type-1 engine, an ambulance-type medical rescue vehicle, and an ATV with a winch and side-by-side setup for medical rescue. For as much as we give to this community, they give back. Two examples are the outstanding turnout and generosity we receive at our yearly BBQ and auction. This is in addition to the many miscellaneous donations we receive throughout the year.
