In addition to serving Wall Township, our firefighters provide mutual aid to surrounding towns including, Sea Girt, Manasquan, Brielle, Howell and Point Pleasant. Mutual aid agreements between neighboring towns ensure that residents are supported by the manpower and equipment necessary in the event of an emergency. Additionally, South Wall Fire Rescue is frequently called into action as a Rapid Intervention Team “RIT” to rescue a downed firefighter should the need arise. South Wall Fire Rescue boasts a healthy membership of approximately 40 active firefighters responding to an average of 370 calls per year. Our members are dedicated to maintaining the highest level of skills within fire suppression, heavy rescue and extrication as well search and rescue by land or water.
