Hyattsville Volunteer Fire Department

Established in 1888, the Hyattsville Volunteer Fire Department is a premier provider of emergency services in Prince George’s County – protecting residents and businesses from our primary response area of the City of Hyattsville and Town of University Park – to up and down the East West Highway, Route 1 and Adelphi Road corridors.

Bordering the Nation’s Capital, our response area stretches from Takoma Park in Montgomery County to communities like Lanham, Bladensburg, Riverdale, College Park, Chillum and Mount Rainer.

We provide comprehensive fire fighting, extrication, specialized rescue, fire prevention education and emergency medical services from our station at Belcrest and Queens Chapel Road, adjacent to the former American Red Cross building and Prince George’s Plaza Metro station, which makes us a convenient place to volunteer for anyone near a Metro station.
