The Camden Fire Department provides fire and rescue services to the citizens of the greater Camden area. The Camden Fire Department's award winning fire prevention programs utilize characterization, clowning, music and magic to teach citizens fire safety.
Our staff provides and installs smoke detectors and smoke detector batteries free of charge upon request.
Our Department has a full time Code Enforcement Officer/Fire Marshal that performs routine fire safety inspections of public buildings and blueprint reviews for fire safety issues.
The Public Education Division offers many different programs to the citizens of Camden and the surrounding community such as Fire and Life Safety presentations, home safety inspections, Smoke Detector Installation Program, child safety seat installations, and our clown and puppet show that we do for approximately 1500-2000 students during Fire Prevention Month, but are available throughout the year. If you would like to schedule one of our programs please contact Assistant Chief Eddie Gardner at 803-425-6040 or egardner@camdensc.org. Please remember that everyone here at the Camden Fire Department takes Fire and Life Safety very seriously and wants you to remember and practice these Safety Tips.
