History[]
The volunteer organization received its first motorized Ford Model T pumper in 1918. Officially, the Warrenton City passed an ordinance authorizing the Warrenton Volunteer Fire Department in 1939. In 1988, the Warrenton Fire Protection District was organized.
Fire Stations[]
Stations 3 and 4 were put up for sale 1/7/2021 due to lack of funding. These stations are unmanned at this time (mainly used for storage and volunteer response). Apparatus and equipment from these stations were moved to Stations 1 and 2.
