About
Us
The Fire Patrol can trace its beginnings
back to 1803, when the Mutual Assistance
and Bag Corporation was formed by a group
of volunteers to protect and preserve the
contents of buildings from fire and water
damage.
Today, these goals ramain paramount. The
Patrol preserves and protects everything
from museum works of art to sophisticated
electronic and computer equipment in high-rise
buildings.

The
Fire Patrol's firehouses (two in Manhattan,
one in Brooklyn), respond 24 hours-a-day,
seven days a week with these activities
being supported by assessments on all
property insurance written in the Patrol's
territory.
In fact, the Fire Patrol responds to
more than 10,000 alarms annually, |
|
| savings
only pertain to contents; thay do not
include the savings to buildings, uninsured
property and contingent coverages. Inclusion
of these components would dramatically
increase this figure. |
