Perkins Township Fire Department delivers fire, emergency medical, and technical rescue services to the 13,000 residents, along with the thousands of visitors who work, shop, and stay in the township.

The department operates 3 ALS ambulances, 3 engines, 1 ladder, and a brush unit, out of fire stations on Campbell Street and Milan Road. All personnel are cross-trained. Most of the full-time firefighters are paramedics, rescue technicians, several are members of the Erie County Haz/Mat team and 20 are certified fire safety inspectors responsible for inspecting more than 725 commercial and industrial buildings throughout the township.
