Volunteer FAQ

Do I need to have prior experience or training to become a firefighter?
No experience is necessary to join Sergeantsville Volunteer Fire Company. We provide you with training at our bi-monthly drill nights and classes through the Hunterdon County Emergency Services Training Center.

Will I get paid?
We are a 100% volunteer organization and do not receive financial compensation; however, there are many other benefits of joining.

How much time do I have to donate as a volunteer?
This is entirely up to you! Our volunteers work, attend school and take care of their families, so we understand that they cannot answer every call and appreciate the time they can donate to the fire company.

I’m under 18, how can I volunteer?
Our junior firefighting program is for teenagers ages 16 and 17. They participate in drill nights and training, and assist on fire calls.

Can I volunteer without fighting fires?
Absolutely! We are seeking fire police to direct traffic during emergencies as well as associate members to assist with administrative duties and fundraising tasks.
