Mebane NC Fire Department

Call Directions Website

Mebane NC Fire Department Operating out of three stations, the Department covers a 35 square-mile district with a population of nearly 25,000. Contact us for more information.

The Mebane Fire Department is a combination paid/volunteer fire department serving citizens of Eastern Alamance and Western Orange Counties in Central North Carolina. Founded in 1922, the Mebane Fire Department is an organization of dedicated professionals who are committed to serving the community by protecting life and property through prevention, education, emergency medical and fire services. Each of the three stations is strategically located in areas that provide the best coverage and response to the citizens we serve. The Department consists of 51 members, including 26 volunteers and 25 career employees who cover the department 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The career employees include the Fire Chief, Deputy Fire Marshal, Fire & Life Safety Educator, Training Captain, 3 shift Captains, 6 shift Lieutenants, 10 Engineers and 5 Firefighters. The 26 volunteers include a Deputy Chief, Assistant Chief, 3 Captains and 21 Firefighters. Those members operate a total of 13 fire apparatus, including 5 engine-pumpers, 2 squad/brush trucks, 1 utility rescue truck, a 100-foot aerial platform, and 3 support vehicles. There is also a paramedic from Alamance County EMS that is housed at Station 2. The Department serves both a city and rural fire district and carries a Fire Suppression rating (formally known as ISO rating) of 2 inside the city and a 3 for the remaining rural district. This puts the Department as one of the highest rated combination paid/volunteer departments in the State. The Department also has an automatic mutual aid agreement with both Alamance and Orange Counties. The Mebane Fire Department is a registered Permanent Checking Station and a member of Alamance County Safe Kids and Buckle Up North Carolina. Parents and caregivers can receive information about child passenger safety (CPS) and have their child restraints and seat belts checked to be sure they are installed and used correctly.

Today, we ask that you keep members of the Durham Fire Department, along with their friends and family in your thoughts and prayers as they mourn the loss of one of their own, who died in the line of duty this morning while battling a large structure fire. Two other firefighters were injured, but survived.

We extend our deepest condolences to everyone affected by this tragic event.

Last night, several of our members had the opportunity to assist our neighbors at Haw River Fire Department with a training burn.

Training alongside other departments is a valuable opportunity to strengthen our skills, build teamwork, and ensure we are prepared to serve our communities when it matters most.

We appreciate the invitation and the continued partnership and collaboration with our mutual aid departments. Working together makes all of us better firefighters and strengthens the emergency services we provide to our communities.
