The Fire Services in the Town of Berlin are comprised of four Fire Departments and a Fire Administrator. 

Fire protection in the Town of Berlin is provided by four independently organized volunteer fire companies: Berlin, East Berlin, Kensington, and South Kensington.

The firefighters that staff these departments are all volunteers.

The four Fire Departments strive to provide the finest emergency services possible and not only respond to fires, but are also called upon to help with automobile accidents, hazardous materials incidents, carbon monoxide alarms, propane leaks, storm damage incidents and even lost person searches.

The Town of Berlin provides tax dollars for fire equipment, training, safety and a per-call stipend for the firefighters.

Three of the four firehouses are owned by their respective memberships, and expenses to maintain these buildings and property are borne directly through fundraising efforts of each of the departments.

The Fire Administrator's presentation to Town Council on January 12, 2016 concerning an overview and concerns of the departments including apparatus replacement, SCBA replacement and needs of the facilities is available for viewing by clicking on any part of this sentence.
