About the program
We help local fire departments obtain excess federal equipment for firefighting and emergency services. The equipment is free; departments just have to cover the cost of putting it into service. Certified volunteer, municipal and city fire departments can request equipment.
- Mutual aid agreement
Departments must file a cooperative mutual-aid fire control agreement with the DNR. See if your department has one.
- Find a fire officer in your area
Contact your local fire supervisor about your equipment needs.
- Request federal excess property
Fill out this form and return it to your local fire surpervisor to request federal excess property. We will contact you when we have equipment available.
