US Flag Retirement

Committed to the Families & Communities we Serve

US Flag Retirement

The Grandstrand Funeral Home & Cremation Services is now the official collection/drop-off site for U.S. flags that are considered old, worn, tattered, frayed or faded and unusable. We gladly accept your flags for retirement and will oversee proper disposal in accordance with the U.S. Flag Code which states, "The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning".

We hope that through this initiative, Grandstrand's can not only educate the public as to the importance of proper flag disposal but also provide those in the local community with a convenient and easy way to do so.

These flags serve as constant reminders to all of us that we live in a country where our freedom has been deeply purchased by blood, sweat, tears and those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice for these freedoms we enjoy. We must not forsake those who have sacrificed in service to this flag, and their families, and what they have forfeited.

The Grandstrand Funeral Home & Cremation Services are proud to provide a free no-cost flag retirement service to all residents in our local community and surrounding areas to retire U.S. flags with the dignity they deserve. The flags will be kept at the funeral home until the official ceremonial retirement service. Old and worn out flags may be dropped-off at any of our locations Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
