Barboursville Volunteer Fire Department (BVFD) has been providing fire & rescue services for the Village of Barboursville and surrounding areas since 1953.

The Barboursville Volunteer Fire Department is a team of dedicated volunteers serving the Village of Barboursville and Cabell County through emergency response, training, prevention, and public education. When BVFD began, there were 20 members in a two-bay station. Currently, BVFD has a six-bay station holding 3 Engines, a 110' Ladder Truck, a Heavy Rescue truck, & Light Rescue Truck, and 39 members. The BVFD fire district is 25 square miles and includes 9,500 residential homes, 800 businesses, and a daytime population of approximately 35,000. BVFD responds to approximately 900-1200 calls per year. The calls range from residential fire alarms and commercial structure fires to motor vehicle accidents and technical rescue including HAZMAT and Swift Water Rescue response

To become a member, please call our station during normal business hours or stop by Monday evenings around 7pm.

It’s a beautiful day to drink your coffee, exercise your right to VOTE, and figure out why the children need their third snack before 9 a.m. 🇺🇸🗳️

It’s Election Day, and the kids are out of school—so today’s forecast is sunshine with a 100% chance of feral activity. 😂🦝

To the parents and grandparents holding down the fort: may your coffee be strong, your patience plentiful, and your house suspiciously quiet for only harmless reasons. 👀

Go vote, be kind, and remember: political disagreements don’t require a response from the fire department. Keep it civil, folks. 🚒😂

Have a great Tuesday!
❤️ Your BVFD crew

The Village is serving up a side of gloom with some post-Halloween, time-change shenanigans. The decorations are coming down, the leftover candy is becoming breakfast, and our internal clocks are somewhere in a ditch off Route 60. 🫠🎃⏰

We allegedly gained an hour, yet somehow everybody needs a nap and a supervisor.

A few reminders from your neighborhood chaos coordinators:
🚗 Slow down on wet roads. Those soggy leaves can turn your morning commute into an unsolicited interpretive dance.
💡 Turn on your headlights so folks can see you through the gloom.
📵 Put the phone down. Your group chat can survive until you park.
🔦 With darkness arriving before your motivation does, watch for pedestrians and give yourself extra time.

Drink your coffee, be kind, and check on whoever has to reset the clock on the firehouse microwave.

Stay safe, Village. We love y’all, but let’s keep today’s drama limited to arguing with the dashboard clock. 🚒🦝

Mornin’, Village! Halloween is over, your porch pumpkin is starting to resemble a toothless papaw, and somewhere there’s a parent calling a Reese’s cup and cold coffee “breakfast.” We support your recovery. 😂☕🍫

Meanwhile, Cher has entered the holler to remind you to TURN BACK TIME. 🎤⏰

Hopefully you turned those clocks back an hour, now give those smoke alarms some attention before you settle into your winter routine of hollering, “HOW IS IT DARK ALREADY?!” at 5 p.m.

🚨 Change the batteries in alarms with replaceable batteries.
🚨 Got sealed 10-year batteries? Test those alarms, too.
🚨 Check the manufacture date—replace smoke alarms at 10 years old.
🚨 Test your carbon monoxide alarms while you’re making the rounds.

And if yours has been chirping since the Fourth of July… honey, that ain’t a leftover Halloween spirit. CHANGE. THE. BATTERY. 😑🔋

Standing on a kitchen chair at midnight, swatting at the ceiling with a broom, is not a maintenance plan.

Enjoy your extra hour, check your alarms, and take down that yard ghost before the wind relocates him to I-64.

Stay safe, stay feral, and let the only haunting in your house be the amount of candy you ate last night. 🚒🦝🖤

🎃👻 HAPPY HALLOWEEN, VILLAGE HEATHENS! 👻🎃

It’s Saturday in Barboursville, and tonight the porch goblins are coming for your candy. Hide the good chocolate and prepare for tiny dinosaurs with absolutely no concept of personal space. 🦖🍬

🕕 TRICK OR TREAT TONIGHT: 6–8 PM! 🕗

Before y’all release the candy-fueled Appalachian chaos, a few reminders from BVFD:

🔦 Light up your little cryptids. Flashlights, glow sticks, and reflective gear help drivers see them.

👀 Make sure costumes fit and kids can see. Tripping over a cape is a rough start to your superhero career.

🚶 Use sidewalks and cross at intersections. Look both ways, and don’t dart between parked cars—even for a full-size candy bar.

🤝 Keep little ones with an adult. Older kids should travel together, have a route, and check in.

🚗 DRIVERS: SLOW DOWN. PHONES DOWN. Expect excited kids to make unexpected moves. Check carefully before backing up.

🍬 Have an adult check treats before digging in. Toss anything open or suspicious, and check labels for food allergies.

🕯️ Keep the spooky glow flameless. Battery-operated candles belong in jack-o’-lanterns. Keep decorations away from heat and exits clear.

Have fun, look out for each other, and save us some Reese’s. Our preferred Halloween emergency is running out of candy. 🚒🦝

Stay spooky. Stay visible. Keep the feral festive. 🖤🧡

🚒🏈 THURSDAY IN THE VILLAGE — BATTLE FOR THE SHIELD EDITION! 🏈🚒

The coffee is strong, the Knights fans are getting wound up, and tonight’s forecast calls for a whole lot of hollerin’. ❤️🖤🤍

Cabell Midland takes on Huntington tonight, and that Shield comes with bragging rights that will absolutely be brought up at family gatherings for the foreseeable future. 😂🛡️

To the players, coaches, bands, cheerleaders, and everyone bringing the school spirit—give it everything you’ve got! We’re ready to hear those Knights fans! 📣

Your BVFD reminder: save the competition for the field. Buckle up, put the phone down, watch for pedestrians, and pack some patience getting out of the parking lot. Your truck is not an offensive lineman. 🚗👀

Be loud. Be proud. Be a good sport. Give us a reason to lose our voices, not dispatch a truck.

LET’S GO, KNIGHTS! BRING THAT SHIELD HOME! 🛡️🏈

10/28/2026

It’s Wednesday in Barboursville, and today is National First Responders Day! Otherwise known as “somebody please let these people finish one hot meal.” 😂

Here’s to the firefighters, EMTs, paramedics, law enforcement officers, and dispatchers keeping things together while the rest of the world hollers, “WELL, I DIDN’T THINK IT WOULD DO THAT.”

We run on cold coffee, interrupted sleep, gas station snacks, and a deeply Appalachian commitment to taking care of our neighbors. Somewhere between “bless your heart” and “hand me the tools,” we get it done. ❤️

Behind every response is somebody leaving supper, missing a family moment, or climbing out of a warm bed because someone needs help. Today, BVFD salutes everyone who answers that call—and the families who share them with their communities.

Want to show us some love? Check those smoke alarms. Make your house number visible. Give emergency crews room to work. And quit plugging space heaters into power strips, you beautiful mountain heathens. 🔥

Stay safe, Barboursville. We love y’all, but we’d prefer to wave at you from the truck while your day remains aggressively uneventful. 🚒❤️

10/27/2026

The coffee is working overtime because this morning we’re welcoming VOBE Pre-K to the station! ❤️ Little shoes, big excitement, and enough questions to put a whole crew through an oral exam. 😂

We’re excited to meet these little neighbors, talk fire safety, and show them where the big trucks live! If your kid comes home wanting a fire engine… that part’s between you and Santa. 🎅🚒

We also owe a BIG thank-you for yesterday’s “Hams for Heroes” donation! 🐷❤️ The McKenna brothers from Hometown Sportswear teamed up with Jeff and Toni Madden at Honey Baked Ham to provide holiday hams for local police officers and firefighters.

Supporting first responders AND feeding them? Y’all know the way to a firehouse’s heart. These fellas can hear a dinner plate hit the counter through three walls and a running diesel. 😂

Thank you, McKennas and Maddens, for your generosity and for thinking of us. We’re grateful to serve a community that takes such good care of its own. ❤️

Have a great Tuesday, folks. Slow down, watch for our little visitors, and behave yourselves—we’ve got tiny fire inspectors coming, and they WILL tell on you. 🦝🔥

10/27/2026

Are you missing a four legged member of your family? We have a visitor at the firehouse! Please let us know if they belong to you.

🎃🚒 MONDAY IN THE VILLAGE, HOLLER HEATHENS! 🚒🎃

It’s National Pumpkin Day, and some of y’all have been preparing by running on pumpkin spice, questionable decisions, and enough caffeine to hear colors. Welcome to Monday in Appalachia. 🍂🦝

Whether you’re carving pumpkins or just trying to keep your porch decorations from rolling down the holler, let’s keep the chaos festive:

🎃 Use battery-operated candles in those jack-o’-lanterns. Your pumpkin needs a glow, not a structure-fire assignment.
🍂 Keep dried cornstalks, hay, and decorations away from heat and flames.
🚪 Keep those porches, steps, and exits clear. Nobody needs to hurdle a decorative scarecrow during an emergency.

👕 HOLLER HEATHENS SHIRT PICKUP IS TODAY!
Monday, October 26 | 2–8 PM
At the fire station

If you ordered a shirt, come collect your official holler attire! You can’t keep telling everybody you’re feral and then leave your uniform at the firehouse. 😂

Be kind, drive like you’ve got some raising, and keep your Monday nonsense below the level that requires dispatch.

BVFD — fueled by coffee, community, and whatever’s rattling around in the snack cabinet. 🚒🦝
