A Stark County process server can reach North Industry, about 4.3 miles from the courthouse in Canton, with a summons and complaint, a subpoena, an eviction notice or other papers in ZIP 44706 or 44707. Pick Standard, Rush or 24-Hour Service; after a successful delivery, a signed proof of service is emailed to you. North Industry has no municipal government.

What a Process Server Costs in North Industry
Budget $185 for Standard Service, which makes its first attempt within 5 business days, or $225 for Rush Service, which makes it within 48 hours. Paying $265 for 24-Hour Service sets a goal of a first attempt within 24 hours, but the rates page says that tier works best for early orders in the largest metro areas, so it depends on submission time and server availability. Should the papers go unserved, add attempts at $25 per attempt. Order online.

Who May Serve Papers in Stark County: Clerk, Sheriff or Designated Server

Residence service lets the papers be left with a resident of suitable age and discretion. A court may designate a person by order for up to one year once that person swears to the 4.1(D) qualifications. If service fails for 28 days, the server endorses why and returns the papers.
