Fire on High Street 

On Monday February 12, 2001 just before 6 PM a fire started inside the 200 block of High Street that went on to consume two commercial structures.  It took approximately two hours to bring the blaze under control.  Several companies including Cedarville, Gouldtown, Mauricetown and two companies from Vineland aided the Millville Fire Department during this emergency.

Both buildings where torn down the day after the fire.  The final determination as to the cause of the fire has not been released at the time of publishing.

Commercial Structure - North 14th Street

On Thursday, November 9th a major fire destroyed the Millville Child Family Center on North 14th Street.    The first alarm was sounded at 18:13 and quickly went to two alarms.  The second alarm called for all available career Firefighters and mutual aid responses from South Vineland, Bridgeton, Mauricetown and Gouldtown.  All responding companies joined in the fight against the blaze with the exception of Gouldtown which manned our fire station.  Cumberland county fire police were also on the scene.  The department was finally back in service at 23:11

Millville Fire Department frequently is called to the scene of a vehicle on fire. For whatever the reason, faulty wiring, poor maintenance or fuel leak, fires involving vehicles usually leave the vehicle extensively damaged.
