Abbeville County Fire Department

Abbeville South Carolina

WELCOME to our Agencies home page, this is our first so it will be under construction for a while. please bookmark our site and check back in soon.

Pictured above is our NEW Headquarters Station opened in August 2003. The Headquarters Station houses the Fire Marshal's Office, Maintenance Division, Training Division and numerous pieces fo apparatus. Our Headquartes Station is the product of several years of effort between the Fire Marshal, County Fire Commission and County Council to update and combine the Previous divisions of the County Fire Services which were all in seperate County building. The new facility is a "State-of-the Art" and will easily carry Abbeville County far into the future. The Headquarters Station is located just off of Hwy 28 By-pass, East of Abbeville off of Hwy 72.
