Do you know what to do with a flag that needs to be retired?

​

It has to go somewhere but there's a way to do it properly.

​

Many people may not know what to do with an American flag after it becomes unusable. That is why we have a drop box conveniently located in front of Oneonta Fire & Rescue Service. We will, following the United States Flag Code, properly retire each American Flag that is deposited in the retirement receptacle.
