“While we appreciate the gesture, to whomever sent the fire department this package, we unfortunately cannot accept it,” they posted on Facebook.

“On one hand we are unable to accept gratuities, and on the other it most likely will not fit any of our personnel,” they added.

They went on to clarify that the item had been sent to them and if anyone had mistakenly added the wrong address, they could reach out to the department and collect their parcel.  

Since being shared, the post has collected over 2,000 reactions and more than 800 shares. Several people have shared their reaction to the gift in the comments section.

“Oh my goodness this made me laugh until I cried. Thank you for sharing,” said one Facebook user. “I wish I had though of that when I was single! Then I’d go down to the station to pick it up... could be a good way to meet a man in uniform!” joked another. “I wish there were pics of whoever opened the package. That must have been hilarious,” posted a third.
