Today, the fire service has become very complex and the demands are much more than putting out fires. The Prattville Fire Department has grown with these demands and has become one of the best-trained departments in the state with the mission to protect lives and property through prevention, and to minimize the effects of fire, sudden illness, accidents and disasters.

Through its efforts, the Prattville Fire Department maintains a Class 2 ISO rating which results in lower insurance rates for businesses and residents.
