911
Since 1926, the Independence Volunteer Fire Department has protected lives and property across Independence and Tangipahoa Parish. What began as a small team of dedicated neighbors has grown into a skilled, professional organization built on service, training, and teamwork.
From structure fires to rescues, our crews respond quickly with the training and focus that save lives.
We believe service begins long before an alarm sounds. Our team supports schools, events, and outreach that keep Independence safe.
