Lindenhurst's trusted first responders — protecting homes, families, and communities along the South Shore with courage and dedication for over 130 years.
For over a century, the Lindenhurst Fire Department at Lane Street has been the backbone of emergency response for our community. Born from the dedication of local volunteers who refused to leave their neighbors unprotected, our station has grown into one of Suffolk County's most respected firehouses.
Our firefighters train relentlessly — not for recognition, but because every second counts when a call comes in. From structure fires to medical emergencies, vehicle accidents to hazardous material calls, we respond with the skill, speed, and resolve that our community deserves.
From rapid fire response to community education, we provide comprehensive protection for every corner of Lindenhurst.
Rapid response to structure, vehicle, and wildland fires. Our crews are trained in advanced fire behavior and structural collapse prevention.

Identification, containment, and mitigation of hazmat incidents. Our HAZMAT team is certified for the most complex chemical emergencies.
In 1891, a group of Lindenhurst residents formed a volunteer fire company after a devastating blaze destroyed several businesses on Main Street. With nothing but determination and a hand-drawn hose cart, they swore to protect their community — a promise they keep every single day.
Through two World Wars, economic depressions, and the growth of our village into a thriving suburb, Lane Street Station has never closed its doors. The firefighters who pass through its bay doors carry forward the same spirit of service that lit the first engine over a century ago.
Today, our department serves a population of over 27,000 across the 11757 zip code, responding to thousands of calls annually with a dedicated team of career and volunteer firefighters.
