Fire Prevention

SMOKE DETECTOR PROGRAM:

The Westville Fire Department has joined forces with 6ABC “Save A Life Program” as well as the New Jersey Division of Fire Safety to offer smoke detectors to those in need. Through our smoke detector program we offer free smoke detectors, including installation, to the citizens of Westville who reside in single family homes.

If you do not live in a single family home and are in need of a working smoke detector, the Westville Fire Dept. will assist you with obtaining one from your landlord.

For more information on our smoke detector program, or if you are in need of a working smoke detector please contact (856)456-9432 or email wfdfm@westvillefd.com

FREDDIE FIRE TRUCK / SPARKY THE FIRE DOG:

Freddie and Sparky make frequent appearances at various public events. Adults and children associate Freddie and Sparky to fire safety programs they have seen at local schools, or during other public service announcements, re-enforcing the lessons of fire safety.

To request Freddie Fire Truck or Sparky the Fire Dog at your next event, please contact (856)456-9432 or email wfdfm@westvillefd.com

What did Gloucester have

🙏🏻

The speed limit needs to be lowered in this stretch of 130. Once they make the circle around Verchios. Its Atco dragway time! I live on Woodbine Ave and pulling out on to 130 south is horrable! A few times I was almost hit as cars and trucks speed through this area.
