The
Lucedale Fire Department was established in 1901 after the township
of Lucedale reached city status. The departments roster is made
up of three full-time paid firemen and eighteen volunteers.
The volunteers are paid based on how many calls they respond to.
The calls per month average between five and eight.
Our department provides fire suppression, inspections and all
other fire safety areas. The station is staffed around the clock
by one firefighter, with a second firefighter during business
hours on weekdays.

also have a 1986 Pierce with a Waterous 1000 gpm pump on a Ford
chassis. It also has a 500 gallon tank. Our newest engine is a
