West Harrison Volunteer Fire Department

West Harrison Volunteer Fire Department West Harrison Volunteer Fire Department proudly serves the western portion of Harrison County. We welcome anyone to come by or contact us for more information.

The West Harrison Volunteer Fire Department is nestled deep in the heart of Northeast Texas, between Longview and Hallsville. Our department is served by Emergency Services District #1 in Harrison County, and ultimately by the taxpayers that reside in this district. Once two small organizations, Gum Springs Volunteer Fire Department and Macedonia Volunteer Fire Department, they were combined in 20

02 forming the West Harrison Volunteer Fire Department. Since then, we have almost entirely updated our fleet of vehicles and all equipment, acquired a new station, and a part time staff of 10 that serves the maintenance needs during the work week. All of this ultimately helps to save the lives, protect the property, and lower the insurance premiums of every resident in our area. We hold regular business meeting on the 1st Monday of every month at our station #2 located on Lois Dr off of Smelley Rd. We also hold training meeting at the same location on the 3rd Monday of each month (sometimes changes due to type of training). Our 3 stations are located at:

Station 1
2656 S. Access Rd Longview, TX 75602 (903)758-4400

Station 2
2780 Lois Dr Longview, TX 75602 (903)758-9100

Station 3
19797 FM 449 Longview,TX 75605 (903)234-1779

Well folks, even thought we got some rain, there is still a burn ban in effect. Hopefully with the storms coming on Wednesday we can get enough rain to lift the burn, but for now we ask that you do not burn outside. As always if you have any questions about the burn ban, feel free to call us or the fire marshal’s office. If we are not at the station, leave a voicemail and we will get back to you!
