Bexar-Bulverde Fire Department

Bexar-Bulverde Fire Department Bexar-Bulverde FD is a combination fire department located within Bexar County ESD #3. Our training facility and burn house are at this location.

Bexar-Bulverde VFD is located within Bexar County ESD #3, the northern most unincorporated area of Bexar County. Our response area is approximately 47 square miles of northern Bexar County with over 62,000 residents and $8.5 billion in property assets. We border Camp Bullis on the west side, Comal County on the north side, and the City of San Antonio on the south and east sides. The department was

incorporated over fifty years ago on December 12, 1966, by a few residents who recognized the need for fire services to protect their homes and families. Operations soon moved to a small building on Borgfeld Road and that location still operates today, though greatly expanded, as Station 103. In 2007, a second station, 104, opened on Bulverde Road near Johnson High School. In 2019, Station 105, a third station and an administration building, opened on Canyon Golf Road. Our fourth station, Station 106 located on E. Evans Road, was completed in February of this year. We operate as a combination fire department, comprised of full-time and volunteer firefighters. As of today, we have 68 full-time employees including our support staff. Our current fleet consists of 3 Engines (with a 4th on order), 2 Ladder Trucks, 3 EMS Squads, 4 Brush Trucks, 2 Water Tenders, 1 Mini Pumper, 1 Heavy Rescue, 1 Polaris with Firefighting Skid, and a handful of staff vehicles. In 2020, we were awarded the prestigious ISO Fire Protection Class One (ISO 1) rating. That puts us in the top half of one percent of fire departments nationwide

This is great fire safety information for teachers and families!

The new school year brings new faces, new routines, and the first fire drill.

For many classrooms, one of the first safety routines students will practice is a fire drill.

Learn Not to Burn® provides educators with free lesson plans and activities to help students understand what a fire drill is, why it's important, and how to respond safely.

We train. We retrain. We stay ready. 🚒❤️

At Bexar County ESD No. 3 / Bexar-Bulverde Fire Department, ongoing training helps ensure our crews are prepared for whatever comes our way.

During our recent Cardiac Arrest Management Training, crews from every station participated in classroom instruction and hands-on scenarios designed to sharpen critical lifesaving skills.

Training included the use of a high-fidelity patient simulator, the LUCAS mechanical CPR device and our new Stryker LIFEPAK 35 cardiac monitors/defibrillators, which help crews monitor vital signs and heart rhythms and deliver lifesaving therapy when needed.

Thank you to Dr. Craig Cooley and members of the Office of the Medical Director (OMD) at UT Health San Antonio who worked alongside our crews during training.

Can we find you in an emergency?

When seconds count, clearly visible address numbers can make a difference.

Take a look at your home, school, business or place of worship from the street. Can you easily see the address during the day AND at night?

Make sure numbers are:
• Large enough to read from the roadway
• Clearly visible and not blocked by landscaping
• Easy to see after dark
• Posted at entrances to long driveways or gated properties when needed

Help us find you when you need us.🚒🚑👀

🏡 Have you checked whether your homeowner’s insurance recognizes our ISO Class 1 rating?

Many residents don’t realize they may need to notify their insurance company. While coverage and discounts vary by carrier, it’s worth asking if your policy reflects the highest possible fire protection classification.

The Bexar Bulverde Fire Department is proud to have earned an ISO Class 1 rating—a distinction achieved by only a small percentage of fire departments nationwide.

📄 We’ve made it easy. Download the official ISO Class 1 letter from our website:

Then contact your insurance agent and ask if your home is receiving any available Class 1 fire protection credit.

A quick phone call today could pay off tomorrow.
