Posted 2 months ago Do firefighter's pay for gas to fill up engines? |
|
| Posted 2 months ago not on our department |
|
| Posted 2 months ago sometimes. Probably a hand full of times from the Firefighters. Gotta do what ya gotta do. But I don't see a department making you have to. When I do a standby, and I do have it, I'll put some in the truck I drive |
|
| Posted 2 months ago not here. all the trucks have credit cards from various gas stations around. however, usually we fill from the borough gas tank (we some sort of agreement with them). the cards are only used in an emergency. if a FF does fill it outta pocket, they're re-embursed then next meeting. |
|
| Posted 2 months ago We use fuel man cards. |
|
| Posted 2 months ago no the fire dept has a account at the gas station |
|
| Posted 2 months ago county shop |
|
| Posted 2 months ago Our fuel is bought in bulk at a reduced price and stored in our tanks. |
|
| Posted 2 months ago We take the money out of the department fund. It is nearly empty right now though so hopefully we don't need fuel anytime soon. |
|
| Posted 2 months ago we have coop cards and the city and rural pay for them |
|
| Posted 2 months ago we have a gas account and have cards in each of our trucks and we each have a gas code. |

| Posted 2 months ago i am paying to damn much to fill up my POV Donald Bramer
|
|
| Posted about 1 month ago our department pays for the fire trucks if a fire fighter takes his own vehicle to a call he has to pay for gas that's way on my days off from my full time job i go a sit at the fire department and take a truck it cost to much money for gas and its only going to get worst |
|
| Posted about 1 month ago ya we pay $3.90 ish for regular in Cali. I'm glad they don't tax gas.. It already cost aproximitly(sp?) 75 dollars tofill up a tank. |
|
| Posted about 1 month ago We don't pay out of our personal pockets but our Board of Directors pay for it out of the money we get each year as apart of our budget. Our department gets it's gas from the County Fuel Pumps... and I am sure that the board gets the bill for that. You have to use a special key and punch in a code to enable the pump. |

|
| Posted about 1 month ago Regular gas is $3.41 gal. Diesel is $4.39 a gal. here in NY State. |
|
|
| Posted about 1 month ago Gas prices here are $3.05 - $3.19 depends on which side of town you are on! |
|
| Posted about 1 month ago Our county tax payers pay for our gas pretty much. Wehave gas cards in all of our engines so it's easy to go fill up. We are required to have our trucks above the half mark on the dash. They can never get below that. Usually if we have 2 runs we better go fill up the truck.The only thing is there are only two gas stations out of 8 that only except the gas cards we use. |
|
|
| Posted about 1 month ago YAY, another 61 dollars of gas. i know a lot of you pay more but wow. this is rediculous. once a WEEK! ugh. |

|
| Posted about 1 month ago We have city owned pumps for our dept vehicles ( as well as PD). Gas is presently between 3.08 and 3.20. For the volunteers, does your department do any form of reimbursement for gas on POVs, or do you wait and do it at the end of the year as a tax write-off? |
