Department Overview

Our motto:
"We exist to serve the community" can be seen in our daily work. The men and women of the DPD go far beyond simply providing traditional law enforcement services.

The Dyersburg Police Department is staffed with 61 men and women who serve as commissioned officers.

An additional staff of 9 civilians provide support services such as records clerks, division office managers and secretaries.

The service area is approximately 16 square miles with a resident population of about 18,500.

The Dyersburg Police Department has been recognized as a regional  leader and as a national model for small departments. The City of Dyersburg, under the guidance of the department, was the first city under 500,000 to become a Weed-N-Seed community. The department also was accredited through the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA) in March of 2000.
