The York County Department of Fire Safety manufactures several of the fire apparatus used in the York County Fire Service. In-house construction of these fire trucks results in significant savings for York County taxpayers. (Approximately 45% to 50% cost savings over commercially manufactured trucks). Three different types of trucks are manufactured in-house: 3,000 gallon water tankers, four wheel drive grass/brush trucks and equipment service trucks. Having the ability to build these trucks in-house not only provides a cost savings but also provides standardization of these trucks. Every fire department in the York County Fire Service has received a tanker, a grass/brush truck, and a service/equipment truck.

The York County Department of Fire Safety is responsible for the repair, maintenance and routine service of approximately 110 fire trucks. This includes any installation of equipment, modifications, annual service, break downs & repairs and pump tests.
