Overview

The Radnor Fire Company of Wayne, Inc. (RFC) was founded in 1906 and is located at 121 S. Wayne Avenue in downtown Wayne. RFC protects the largest fire district in Radnor Township, Delaware County while the Ambulance service covers the entire Township. RFC also responds to what is commonly referred to as the 'Panhandle' in Tredyffrin Township, Chester County as the primary Fire/EMS provider.

In 2017, under the direction of Chief Joseph Maguire, RFC responded to 721 to fire and rescue incidents, along with 2,219 emergency medical services calls. A dedicated group of volunteers and staff handled these incidents with a fleet of three modern fire engines, a 100' ladder truck, a rescue truck, three Advanced Life Support (ALS) ambulances and three emergency response support vehicles.

RFC enhanced its service to the community on August 1, 2011 by beginning to provide Advanced Life Support (ALS) service. The Emergency Medical Services program has existed since 1947 and has seen its call volume triple since the 1980s.

In 2018, RFC will be focusing its efforts on recruiting volunteers to serve as Firefighters and EMTs. The generosity of residents and businesses in Radnor and Tredyffrin continue to play a vital role in keeping fire company operations running 24x7x365.

The mission of the Radnor Fire Company of Wayne is to protect the lives and property of the residents, businesses, and visitors of Radnor and Tredyffrin Townships, and surrounding communities. Our personnel will respond in a rapid and safe manner to provide fire, suppression, safety education, emergency medical and other services in accordance with need.
