Mission Statement


The objective of the Hamilton Volunteer Fire Department is, and always has been, to bring to the Hamilton Fire District one of the best trained and professional volunteer fire departments in the State of Montana. The challenge in that endeavor is to maintain that level of expertise with ever-increasing budget constraints.  The H.V.F.D proudly carries a class 5 I.S.O. rating with the insurance industry; one of the best of any volunteer department in the state. As H.V.F.D. strives to maintain our insurance rating and be the best, we must continue to train extensively. Our volunteers are committed to that training, bringing to every fire the ability to attack fires aggressively, staying within the bounds of safety, and stopping any further damage from the time we arrive on the scene. 

Hamilton Volunteer Fire Department will continue to be committed to our community bringing the best trained, aggressive and professional fire fighters to every scene with the intention of saving taxpayer's money either through reduced property insurance rates or reduction in property damage.
