No Changes for Rural Metro from Future Sale to More Fire-Focused Company
Rural Metro Fire Department will soon have a new parent company. Global Medical Response and Brindlee Fire Services have announced the signing of a definitive agreement to the acquisition of Rural Metro, formerly Valley Fire Service.
Following completion of this acquisition, Rural Metro Fire will join Brindlee Mountain Fire Apparatus, Company Two, Firetrucks Unlimited, Solomon Safety, FireFleet and other leading fire service companies.
Brindlee is a diversified fire industry company headquartered in Alabama.
With more than 70 years of service across 20 states, Rural Metro offers a variety of fire protective services to rural and unincorporated communities including fire prevention and suppression, emergency services, rescue and medical aid at motor vehicle accidents, and home safety checks.
Rural Metro's National Fire Chief Mike Ragone said the acquisition moves them from management by a large medical service provider to a more fire-focused team. He said there will be no noticeable changes for Rural Metro in Josephine County.
American Medical Response in Josephine County will also remain status-quo and continue as a Global Medical Response company.
