APPARATUS

Our fleet consists of six different vehicles that all serve unique purposes on the fireground. Part of what makes our apparatus unique to many other departments in Hunterdon County is that vehicles must be custom designed and custom ordered. Due to our low bays, nearly all trucks need to be custom designed to fit into our tight quarters.

Featuring a 7.3L Powerstroke Diesel engine, our brush truck is capable of conquering any task it may be assigned to. With an onboard tank with 350 gallons of water, it is perfect for any terrain that a typical engine cannot reach.
