Located 30 miles North East of the City of Birmingham the Springville Fire Department provides primary Fire and Advanced Life Support services to the City of Springville. In addition we provide hazardous materials technical response for the Northern half of St. Clair County including Hwy 411 and Interstate 59.

Springville Fire Department is comprised of a combination of paid and volunteer members with 10 full-time personnel, 5 part time personnel, and 15 volunteers. The department is headed by Chief Richard Harvey who has served as fire chief for the past 10 years.

The Springville Fire Department operates from two fire stations. Station #1 is located at 200 Walker Drive and houses Engine Companies 551 and 553, a 1983 International Service / Hazardous Materials Response unit, a 2005 Ford F550 hazardous materials response unit with two 16' cargo trailers, and a Mobile Command Unit.

There are four full time staffing positions daily plus the Chief with minimum daily staffing of three firefighters. Two personnel are assigned to each station. Both stations maintain Engine companies equipped with Advance Life Support equipment, and medications. There is at least one and may be as many as three paramedics, on duty 24 hours per day.
