  • Shamrock Cleaners

    A Tallahassee dry cleaner of twenty-five years with a fire and flood restoration arm, fur and leather work, and complimentary pickup and delivery. Their advice on hurricane damage is the most useful thing they publish: photograph everything before you clean or throw anything away, because documentation decides what an insurer will pay for and what a restorer can save.

  • Dolls by Diane

    Listed in a published list of doll hospitals by state, in FL. The website the directory gives no longer loads. We have not read a website for them, so we cannot tell you what they take on, what they refuse, or what it costs. The contact details are theirs and are published here as the directory published them. Ring before you rely on any of it: of the entries in these same lists that did give a website, nearly half pointed at a domain that no longer exists.

    Florida

    Doesn’t say how you get it to them

Everywhere, including Florida

6 of these are national rather than local: a chain with a shop near most people, a restoration franchise dispatched to wherever the damage is, a manufacturer's own service. They are as available in Florida as anywhere else.

The Doll Doctors Association lists a member in Florida

We are not going to reprint their phone numbers here. Those were published by the association, about them, and passing them on second hand from a site they have never heard of is not ours to do. Their own locator is the list those people agreed to be on, and it is the one that gets kept up to date.

  • Miss Rosies Dolls

    Orange Park · has a website

Their locator, with the contact details Read their guidance before you send anything. They say plainly: do not ship until the hospital has agreed to take it, and insure it for its replacement value both ways.

Or post it to one of these

24 businesses anywhere in the country say they take work by post. Before you send anything: of the 194 we have read, 2 say anything about insuring your item while it is with them. Insure the parcel yourself, both ways.
