Chartered in 1949, Taunton Fire Company was formed to respond to the rapid growth in the southern, wooded areas of Medford. Starting with a war surplus jeep, in the past 60 years Station 252 has become the fire protection coverage for the southern half of our township.

The Medford Township Division of Fire provides firefighting, rescue and emergency medical services to the residents and businesses within the historic township of Medford, New Jersey. Our firefighters and emergency medical technicians provide services to an area approximately 40 square miles with a population of just under twenty five thousand residents. Our township is located on the edge of the Pinelands National Reserve in central Burlington County, New Jersey.

The Division of Fire is composed of two volunteer fire stations, Union and Taunton Fire Companies, and a career firefighting staff that responds alongside our volunteers to emergencies at any time of the day or night. Within our division, we maintain trained teams of personnel and equipment for not only fire suppression and emergency medical services, but confined space, dive, water, and ice rescue and recovery. Our two volunteer stations also provide fire police services to assist the Police Division and a junior program to encourage tomorrow's firefighters to begin learning the duties of a Medford Firefighter.

Please explore our web site and provide feedback on your thoughts of our new design. In addition to the emergency services mentioned above, our staff also provides Medford Township residents and businesses with residential and commercial fire inspection and investigation services. Many of the necessary forms and information to begin working with us are located online, and you can feel free to contact us at our offices:
