Bring your existing fire extinguishers to have them tested by BMFPD volunteers; if they are dry, we’ll recycle them and help you select new ones.

Information tables are chock full of current info on first aid, pet evacuation, mitigation and the Wildfire Partners program.

Get reflective address kits, fire extinguishers, smoke and CO alarms, fire blankets and bleed control kits. BMFPD volunteers will help you evaluate your needs based on your home’s layout.
