About Us

Organized in 1873 as the S.E. Day Hook and Ladder, Tuthill Hose an Fitts Hose Companies, the Moravia Fire Department was formed. Today the 100% volunteer Moravia Volunteer Fire Company of the Moravia Joint Fire District proudly provides fire protection to approximately 4000 permanent residents of the Village of Moravia and the Town of Moravia. Our first due response area is 30 square miles and made up of various type buildings. Though much of our district is rural we also protect two schools, manufacturing facilities, many businesses, a nursing home, senior housing and multi unit apartments. Cayuga Correctional Facility, a medium security New York State prison with 1100 inmates, and Fillmore Glen State Park, which covers over 900 acres, are also in our jurisdiction.

Our services include fire, hazardous materials, basic medical and technical rescue response. The MVFC provides Rapid Intervention Team coverage for Southern Cayuga County and specializes in most types of technical rescue including rope rescue, ice rescue, auto extrication and trench rescue. Most of our members our trained in hazardous materials and decontamination with many that are New York State Hazardous Materials Technicians. Firefighter safety and fire prevention education are vitally important to our organization as well.

Thank you for visiting our website. If you have any questions about our organization or would like to become a member please contact us. The MVFC is always looking for volunteers and encourages citizens to give back to their community.

The Moravia Fire Department was toned out today at 12:47 pm to North Main St. for a fire going into the woods and a gully from a burn pit. The wind and dry conditions were not in our favor but we were able to get in front of the fire and stop it from heading east into the woods towards Oak Hill Rd. We started West Niles FD & West Niles FD for their Rangers but we were able to control the spread of fire quickly so they stood on their floor. (First 4 pictures from North Main St)

Yesterday at 11:22 am MFD was toned out for a brush fire at Lisa’s Lane off of Rockefellar Rd (Last 6 pics from that fire) Thank you to Locke FD for their assistance bringing water with there Tanker and Engine.

This is the 3rd outside fire MFD has had in a week

****JUST A REMINDER THERE IS A NY STATE BURN BAN IN PLACE FOR A REASON. NYS DEC WILL BE RESPONDING FOR ANY OUTSIDE FIRE AND WILL ISSUE TICKETS & FINES. PLEASE DO NOT BURN AT THIS TIME.****

As a retired firefighter paramedic I appreciate the difficulty of your job, and thank you for your service. I would volunteer more but disability doesn't allow.

Just a reminder that there is a NYS Burn Ban in effect. ... See MoreSee Less
