We can't help you if we can't find you! Is your address visible from the road?

Firefighters often struggle to locate a home due to a lack of a visible address at the road.  Is your home's address easily visible from the road? 

Here are some ways to evaluate the visibility of your home's address:

1.  Is the numbering and lettering large enough to be read from a vehicle at night?

2.  Is the sign reflective?  Too many address signs use dark numbering/lettering

3.  Can the address be seen from both directions?  (You may approach your home from one direction consistently yet firefighters may come from several directions.)

4.  Is the sign raised above ground to avoid being buried in snow?

5.  Can the sign be viewed as firefighters approach your home rather than visible only directly in front of the driveway.

Help us to help you.  Make sure firefighters can find your home quickly.  Here is an example of a reflective sign provided by Inter-Canyon Fire Protection District. 

You can request a sign by calling non-emergency office at 303-697-4413.
