Welcome to the Tinley Park Fire Department Website,

     We are approaching our 105th year of service to the community and find that many things have changed throughout our history. We could never have made necessary changes without the support of local governments and the citizens of our community. It is imperative that the organization works closely with the entire community in order to insure the needs of the community. Our goal is to serve and protect both life and property of the citizens and visitors of Tinley Park.

We currently have twenty-four hour staffing at two stations with our paid-on-call staff of 125. Automatic Aid with other communities near the other two other stations have provided a stronger and immediate response in the lesser call volume areas. We have purchased a new E-One 95-foot aerial platform. This unit is fully equipped for truck company operations. We are currently in the process of purchasing a new Pierce engine to continue to maintain and upgrade our fleet of vehicles

Our annual fund drive supports the purchase of new equipment, thus reducing the amount of tax revenue needed by the department. The fund drive also benefits the community by ensuring that we have the most modern, state-of-the-art fire fighting equipment in all four stations. We cannot thank the citizens enough for their participation and support. Having the proper equipment helps our community maintain a high ISO rating, currently Class 3. This keeps insurance rates low, for both residential and commercial properties.

The Tinley Park Fire Department has proudly served the Village of Tinley Park for 104 years and stands ready to continue serving you through many years to come.

Events of September 11th, 2001 have changed the lives of thousands of Firefighters. We mourn the loss of the New York firefighters, Police Officers and rescue workers. We pray for the families of those who lost loved ones and the families of all emergency service personnel around the country
