DTVFC proudly serves and protects the 55 square miles of Dingmans Ferry, with 7,500+ property owners and a population of 3,500+ residents. Just over the Delaware River from New Jersey, Dingmans Ferry is a continuously growing area. It's appeal is contributed to the fact that it is surrounded by National Park Service land.

There are 53 Company Members (31 Active; 5 Associate; 17 Honorary). The Company's Ladies Auxiliary has 16 members (9 Active; 7 Honorary). We presently run with 2 Engines, 1 Tanker, 1 Rescue, and a Chief's Car.

The Company's services are not limited to Fire and Rescue, they also include public service (pool fills, pump outs, traffic control, fire prevention).

The Company presently owns two houses: one main and one substation as described below.


The original fire house, which is presently owned by National Park Service, was the stone building on Rt. 209 south of Rt. 739. The building was built by the members of the Company in 1956/1957. Once completed, the fire house not only housed the equipment of the Company, but became the center of many Dingmans Village activities. Unfortunately, as a result of the Tocks Island Dam Project in the 70's, the residents of the Village were forced to move deeper into Dingmans Ferry. The Fire Company was no exception.


In the late 70's, the Company built a substation to house their ever growing equipment.

After the NPS took over the fire house on 209, this became the only building owned by the Company. Once again leaving the members of the Company without a "home".

As the needs of the Township grew, the Company also used the Township Building to house some of its equipment, hold meetings, and have training.



Our SubStation is located on Old Milford Road (01), a quarter of a mile south of Rt 739.

It houses one of our Engines and Rescue.

This will also be the new home of our 2000 American LaFrance Pumper.



1993 marked the completion of the Company's new "home". DTVFC now had a place of its own to hold meetings, have training, and hold fund raisers.

Our Main House is located on Wilson Hill Road, across the road from the ballfields and can be accessed from either Old Milford Road (01) or Rt. 209.

The Main house holds our Tanker and our other Engine.



Here you will also find a trailer home that was donated to the Company by Long Meadow Chapel. It is used as a training/smoke house.
