The Helena Fire Department is always striving to upgrade and update our equipment. All of our apparatus are on a replacement schedule that is established by City Administration, City Shops and the Fire Department.
As we replace apparatus and equipment, we have looked for other City Departments and neighboring volunteer Fire Department to donate the replaced equipment to. This benefits all entities involved.
Below is a list of each Department and the equipment that we have been able to donate to them.
