The Wellston Fire Department is a combination Career/Paid On Call department located in Southeast Ohio. We are approximately 80 miles south of Columbus and 120 miles east of Cincinnati. We run fire, hazmat, water rescue and basic life support first response in our 59.5 square mile coverage area. We also provide mutual aid to all of Vinton and Jackson Counties. We have an ISO Class 4 Rating and are continuously working to improve. We are a participating member in the Statewide Mutual Aid system. We average approximately 400 calls per year. We provide an average staffing of three (3) firefighters to the citizens we protect. We operate a Fire Training Academy which trains emergency personnel around the state of Ohio. We pride ourselves in being a well-trained, progressive, customer service oriented department with loyal members. I personally want to invite you to make Wellston your new home.
