Milton Township Process Server Rates
Eleven and a half miles to the county seat argues for the first two tiers. Standard Service at $185 puts the first attempt inside 5 business days, while Rush Service at $225 puts it inside 48 hours. The 24-Hour tier at $265 is a stretch for a township outside the big metros: the rates page gives no promise and makes submission time and server availability the deciding factors. A second visit after a miss can be had for $25 per attempt.
Wayne County Sheriff, Bailiff or Private Server?

The clerk mails it; the sheriff or a municipal-court bailiff delivers it after a written request; and the court can designate a private person, up to a year, on an oath covering the 4.1(D) list.
