Your checklist
  • Get low

    Smoke is poisonous and more deadly than flames.

    If you breathe smoke for more than a few breaths it can kill you.

  • Be fast

    A house fire can kill you in less than three minutes.

    Don't spend time trying to save possessions.

  • Close doors

    A closed door buys you time.

    It slows down the spread of fire, giving you more time to get to safety.

  • Get out - stay out!

    People have died by going back into a fire.

    Don't leave the meeting place to go back inside for any reason.

Silverdale Station

This station is crewed with both career firefighters Monday - Friday 0700hr to 1730hr, as well as volunteer firefighters. Career crews work on a shift roster, and volunteers respond when required.

We respond to a variety of emergencies in our local area. These include:

  • Fires
  • Medical emergencies
  • Motor vehicle accidents
  • Search and rescue
  • Civil defence and natural disaster responses 

We also conduct fire prevention and school visits, check smoke alarms in homes and businesses, and of course offer fire safety advice.

If you want to visit this station, get in touch using the contact details on this page. If you want to come meet the volunteer crew, head down to one of our training nights.
