Flag Disposal

Old flagsOur nation’s flag is not to be trashed!  There is a special way to dispose of them and we are here to help you retire your aged flags honorably.

We retire thousands of local flags each year and we do it with the dignity and honors our National Ensign deserves.

Funeral casket flags are also accepted.  We will fly them in honor of a deceased family member.  Contact the post for special instructions and to arrange for this service.  Donations are accepted.  Contact the post

    I have a very worn American flag that needs to be disposed of with love and care. Do I need to make an appointment or can I just come by and drop it off?

    Thank you, Patty Pfeil
