York County Fire 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).
Trucks

Having the ability to build these trucks in-house not only provides a cost savings but also provides standardization of these trucks.

Repair & Maintenance
York County Fire is responsible for the repair, maintenance and routine service of approximately 110 fire trucks. This includes:
