What is different about Baker County

Baker County sits on the Georgia line, and Macclenny is closer to Jacksonville's airport than to most of Florida. That works in a family's favor: short ground time to JAX, and paperwork filed in a small county office that we deal with regularly.

Families we serve from Baker County most often ask about Mexico, Philippines and Germany. Whichever the destination, consular requirements are confirmed before a flight is booked, and the shipment departs Jacksonville International (JAX).

When a death occurs in Baker County

  1. 01

    Under hospice care: call your hospice nurse first, then call us, and tell the nurse your loved one is entrusted to Legacy. We coordinate directly with the hospices serving Baker County.

  2. 02

    Not under hospice care: call 911 before calling us. Once officials give their release, we take your loved one into our care.

  3. 03

    At a hospital or nursing facility: call us and name Legacy as your funeral establishment. The facility handles the rest with us directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you serve my area?

Yes. Baker County is inside our regular Florida service area, including Macclenny, Glen St. Mary and Sanderson. Transport is dispatched to the place of death anywhere in the county, and the phone is answered 24 hours a day at (239) 207-0390.

Do I have to travel to Florida?

No. Authorizations are signed electronically and every arrangement can be made by telephone and email, whichever state or country you are calling from. Most of the families we serve in Baker County are calling from somewhere else entirely.

Which airport do you fly from?

For Baker County we normally depart Jacksonville International (JAX). If another Florida airport gets your loved one home sooner or at lower cost, we will tell you and use that one instead.

How long does an international shipment take?

Most shipments leaving Baker County depart within three to seven days of the first call. The variable is the destination consulate and how quickly the county issues the death certificate, not the flight itself.

What does it cost?

Shipping to another state starts at $1,990, and international shipping at $5,995 with the sealing casket included. Airfare is separate and billed at cost with no mark-up. Families in Macclenny and across Baker County receive a written price before anything is authorized, and nothing is added afterward.

Who answers at two in the morning?

A member of our staff, not an answering service. Whether you are calling from Macclenny or from another country, a licensed funeral director picks up. Deaths do not keep business hours and neither do we.
