The Carlton Fire Company is a long-standing volunteer fire and emergency services organization serving the Town of Carlton in Orleans County, New York. It was officially established in 1940, and since then has been dedicated to protecting lives, property, and the community from fire, accidents, and other emergencies.
From its early days, the company grew as a community-based volunteer force, responding to a wide range of calls throughout Carlton and the surrounding rural areas. Over the decades, its members have been deeply involved not only in emergency responses but also in community outreach, fundraisers, and local events that strengthen the bond between the fire company and residents.
Today, the fire company continues to uphold its mission of providing fire protection, first response, and traffic and incident management services. It operates through the dedication of volunteers who train regularly and maintain readiness to respond to fires, vehicle accidents, medical emergencies, and other crises within the town.
