Welcome to the home page for the Raytown Fire District.

Our website is a personal glimpse of our organization. We have a wide variety of information to offer. It will show you about the fire district and how we operate. But, there are pages of fire safety information, special links that will take you to other fire and emergency service organizations and ways for you to contact us. 


Our Mission 

The Raytown Fire Protection District's mission is to protect the people and property within our service area by providing the widest range of professional emergency services possible.

 How we intend to accomplish our mission

We will deliver these services in an effort to mitigate the adverse effects of fire, sudden medical emergencies or exposure to dangerous conditions created by man or nature.  We intend to do so with rapid, professional, humanitarian services essential to their health, safety and well being. We will accomplish our mission utilizing the best personnel to deliver prevention, public awareness, fire suppression, emergency medical services and other related emergency and non-emergency activities. We will actively participate in our community and strive to effectively utilize all of the resources at our command to complete this mission.


Your probably wondering, why our address is "RaytownFire.com" instead of "dot net", "dot gov" or "dot org"? We decided that our main target audience should be the general public. We felt that we should be a "dot com" for two basic reasons. The first reason is because we are service oriented and you are our customers. We wish to continue to express ourselves as a customer oriented business, on a day to day basis and especially during an emergency. The other reason is that we recognize that people  will tend to remember our web address because most web addresses end in dot com.  In that way, they (you) will return to our site and hopefully bookmark it as one to return to again and again.

The Raytown Fire District has remodeled both of our fire stations. We are selling our temporary housing.  We purchased these new 16 by 80 foot mobile homes and moved into them in August of 2007, used them for eleven months and then moved into our new facility. We have two for sale. The third mobile home is already sold. If you are interested in buying one of these homes you may see the full description and photographs by clicking here: Mobile Home For Sale
