What is different about Madison County

Madison County is rural North Florida on the Georgia line, with agriculture and a small county seat. Families here are used to coordinating across the state line, and so are we.

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

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you serve my area?

Yes. Madison County is inside our regular Florida service area, including Madison and Greenville. 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 Madison County are calling from somewhere else entirely.

Which airport do you fly from?

For Madison County we normally depart Tallahassee International (TLH). 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 Madison 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 Madison and across Madison 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 Madison or from another country, a licensed funeral director picks up. Deaths do not keep business hours and neither do we.
