All of the flags we process are disposed of with dignity and respect after an appropriate flag retirement ceremony. The founder of the Flag Keepers, a retired U.S. Marine of 27 years, has many years of in-depth ceremonial flag experience that included developing a proper flag retirement ceremony, maintenance of American and military flags, and proper flag disposal procedures. Our proper flag disposal program is based on the U.S. Flag Code, proper flag handling techniques, maintenance, and ceremonial flag procedures.

The Flag Keepers organization is the only organization specifically dedicated to the tattered American flags from public display. Additionally we are here to answer questions about how to properly care for, maintain and display the American flag.

We gladly accept P.O.W. flags, state flags, municipal flags and country flags from friendly nations for proper flag disposal.
