South Wall Fire and Rescue has been serving the Township of Wall since 1946.  For over fifty years, we have upheld the longstanding tradition of pride and service within the volunteer fire community.  In order to meet the ever growing demands to preserve life and property, we are dedicated to expanding and evolving our resources.  This includes new equipment, ongoing training, and exceptional skill level.  Our goal is not to simply maintain our standard of performance, but to exceed it. South Wall Fire and Rescue recognizes and values the years of mutual aid provided by our surrounding communities and agencies.  In turn, we hope to return the favor and extend our services to our fellow departments.

RIT or Rapid Intervention Team is something that the members of South Wall pride themselves in. Our company is both Monmouth and Ocean County certified RIT teams. Our training records, equipment and SOG’s are inspected on a 3 year basis to keep the certifications.

Our members take training very seriously and RIT is no exception. The last Monday of every month is RIT training, this varies between air emergencies, firefighter packaging and removal and special rescue circumstances involving a Structural Collapse. Members have certain training classes that are needs and a minimum of 3 years firefighting experience before they are considered to be on the RIT Team. Click here to view our 2015 training schedule. Members have traveled to other states such as Pennsylvania and Florida to receive very physically demanding firefighter survival and RIT training in years past.

Currently South Wall Fire Rescue responds to multiple local agencies as a Rapid Intervention Team and been called to a number of notable fires including the Seaside Fire and Manasquan multiple structures pictured here.
