What the District can do for you outside an emergency, and how to ask.
Most of these start with a phone call or an email. Find what you need below, then call 417-771-7570, email info@brooklinefpd.com, or send us a message.
None of these are for emergencies. To report a fire, a medical emergency, or anything happening right now, call 911.

Car seat check
Our certified technicians check that your child's car seat is the right fit and installed correctly in your vehicle.
Book a checkMake your address easy to find
Large house numbers that stand out from the wall, readable from the road in both directions, get crews to you faster at night. If your house sits back, mark the end of the driveway too.

Knox box
A Knox box holds your keys outside the building so firefighters can get in without forcing a door. Boxes are keyed to the District, so talk to us before ordering one.

A crew can walk through your building ahead of time to learn its layout, hazards, utility shutoffs and water supply, so they arrive with a plan.
