You can join, go through the training, respond to calls, participate in drills and events, and then you can hand out donuts!
Thanks,
Michael

How can I be the guy who hands out the donuts?

Vehicle extrication is one of the rescue disciplines we practice regularly. We use the "Jaws of Life" to take apart vehicles involved in crashes and remove patients. We work with our neighboring departments and our local towing companies to train. Would you like to know more? Call 609-395-0633 or email

Taxes. Not fire taxes. West windsor overall taxes are much much higher than Cranbury. If we have to pay 5 million a year for paid firefighters that is going to increase each homeowner’s bill by thousands of dollars.

Fun Fact! We not only respond to accidents and fires. We've responded to some unique calls over the years. 10 years ago today we helped rescue a bear out of a tree! Next time you see Tower 48 look for the bear paw print on the platform.

Did you know that 7 out of every 10 firefighters in the US are volunteers? The Cranbury Volunteer Fire Co. is 100% volunteer fire department. We need your help to stay that way! We have 3 different classes of membership. We provide for all training and equipment.
Active Member - For members 18 years or older. Trained as an interior firefighter, can pursue training in other facets of fire/rescue services.
Rescue Member - For members 18 years or older. Trained as a first responder and in extrication operations, can pursue training in other facets of rescue and or move up to Active Member and become trained as a firefighter.
Jr Member - For members 14 - 18. Training to learn the equipment and operations of the department. Not allowed to train as interior firefighters or full rescue operations.
Please contact us at 609-395-0633 or
