Also collecting from other posts and lodges. We pick up flags from additional American Legion, VFW, AmVets, and Eagles lodges in the area. Their hours vary, so call (513) 884-3239 to find the closest one.
WHAT WE ACCEPT
Every Flag. Any Condition. Always Free.
There are no requirements, no fees, and no flags turned away. If it flew over an American home, it deserves a dignified retirement — and we're here to give it one.
American Flags of Any Size
From small handheld flags to full-size flags that flew over a home or business — every one gets the same respect.
Any Condition
Faded, torn, weathered, sun-bleached — if it's ready for retirement, it belongs with us. That's the whole point.
No Cost, Ever
Retiring a flag is never a charge. It's a duty, and we're honored to carry it.
OUTSIDE OUR AREA
Too Far From a Drop-Off?
Reach out and we'll figure it out together, including flags from outside our immediate area. We also run pickups across Southwest Ohio — ten American Legion posts, seven VFW posts, two AmVets posts and an Eagles lodge call us when they have more flags than they can handle themselves, and we come collect them.
FINAL SALUTE
Bring Us Your Flag
Bring us your flag — we'll give it the send-off it earned.
