The Haralson County Fire Department is a dedicated team of 46 professional firefighters and staff members who provide fire and emergency services to the unincorporated areas of Haralson County and the Cities of Buchanan, Tallapoosa, and Waco. With 11 manned stations and one unmanned volunteer station, they cover a vast area of 283 square miles, protecting nearly 13,000 residences and 500 businesses.
Established in 1965, the department has evolved from a mostly-volunteer organization to a full-time 24/7/365 department. These brave men and women undergo rigorous training programs to comply with the requirements of the Georgia Firefighter's Standards and Training Act, ensuring they are well-prepared to handle fires, public safety and medical emergencies, disasters, and terrorist acts. Their commitment to protecting lives and property is evident in their dedication to suppression activities, public education, rescues, emergency medical care, and response to hazardous material incidents.
