Fairbury Rural Fire Department

The Fairbury Rural Fire Department, established in 1964, serves the Fairbury Rural Fire District, which encompasses approximately 200 square miles in central and southwest Jefferson County, Nebraska. Comprising a team of about 50 professional volunteer firefighters, the department is dedicated to providing first-response protection to the local communities, including the villages of Reynolds, Endicott, and the city of Fairbury since 2018.

Operating with a modest taxpayer-supported budget supplemented by donations, the Fairbury Rural Fire Department ensures readiness through extensive training, equipment maintenance, and community outreach. The firefighters, primarily local residents who work as farmers, businesspeople, and factory workers, uphold standards that align them with some of the best career departments in the region.
