Adopt a Fire Hydrant Program
The Harper Woods Fire Department seeks your help in keeping fire hydrants clear of snow and debris. A minimun clearance of three feet around the hydrant is optimal. Your assistance will help reduce the time it takes for fire fighters to locate and hook up hoses if there should be a structure fire in your neighborhood. The best time to shovel out a hydrant is after your street has been plowed and before snow accumulates and freezes. If you would like to volunteer for this program, please call 313-343-2550.
Child Car Seat Safety Inspection
Child Safety is of the utmost importance to the Harper Woods Fire Department. We have a car seat technician on staff to inspect your infant or child's car seat. Call 313-343-2550 to schedule an appointment.
Smoke Detector Program
If you are in need of a smoke detector, the Fire Department will be happy to provide you with one and install it! Call us at 313-343-2550.
