The Woodbury Heights Police Department was founded in 1961. Prior to that date police protection was provided by the New Jersey State Police. Town Marshalls and volunteers from the local Fire Department provided police services also. In 1929 the first school safety patrol was established at the Woodbury Heights Elementary School. In 1966 the first police chief was Tuck McCabe. Since then there have been four police chiefs. The Police Department became a 24 hour, 7 day a week operation in 1984. A D.A.R.E. unit was established in 1992 by Sgt. James Golding.

The safety annex was built in 1994 for the Police Department as well as the Court Administration Office. A new ramp was constructed in 2007 for better access to the police and court clerk's offices.
