Eviction Service West Palm Beach — Golden Process Service
Eviction Service West Palm Beach handled by Golden Process Service — a certified Florida process server working West Palm Beach and the rest of Palm Beach County every day. Most failed evictions in West Palm Beach are not lost on the merits. They are lost because the 3-day notice was posted on the wrong door, delivered without a witness, or dated in a way the judge would not accept. Golden Process Service documents every posting so opposing counsel has nothing to attack.
Quick answer
Eviction service in West Palm Beach means delivering the landlord's statutory notice and, once the case is filed, the summons and complaint. Golden Process Service posts or hand-delivers the notice, photographs the posting, records the exact date and time, and returns a signed affidavit of service. The notice period under Chapter 83 runs from proper delivery, so a sloppy posting restarts the whole timeline.
What Eviction Service West Palm Beach Covers
Golden Process Service has handled eviction service across Palm Beach County since 2018. In West Palm Beach specifically, West Palm Beach is the Palm Beach County seat and Golden Process Service keeps a permanent office minutes north of it. Golden Process Service works West Palm Beach out of 378 Northlake Blvd, Suite 405, North Palm Beach, FL 33408, which is why turnaround here is measured in hours rather than days.
The documents we handle for West Palm Beach clients include:
- 3-day notices for unpaid rent
- 7-day notices to cure or terminate
- 15-day month-to-month termination notices
- summons and complaint for eviction
- writs of possession
Every West Palm Beach assignment comes back with a signed, notarised return of service naming the date, time, address, method and the person served. That affidavit is the only part of this work a judge ever sees, so it is the part we treat as the deliverable. West Palm Beach also hosts Corporate Creations, so registered agent service is frequently bundled with this work.

The Florida Law Behind Eviction Service
Eviction Service in Florida is governed by Chapter 83, Florida Statutes. Florida's Landlord and Tenant Act. A residential eviction starts with the correct written notice — a 3-day notice for unpaid rent under §83.56(3), a 7-day notice to cure or terminate for a lease violation, or a 15-day notice to end a month-to-month tenancy under §83.57 — and the notice period does not begin until the notice is properly delivered.
Golden Process Service servers are certified in the circuits they work, which for West Palm Beach means the courts covering Palm Beach County. Filings and returns route through Palm Beach County Courthouse, 205 N Dixie Hwy, West Palm Beach, FL 33401. You can confirm case status directly with the Palm Beach County Clerk of the Circuit Court.

How Eviction Service Works, Step by Step
1. Notice served and documented
We post or hand-deliver the notice, photograph the posting, and log the exact date and time — because the clock in an eviction runs from delivery, not from the date on the document.
2. Summons and complaint served
Once the case is filed, we serve the tenant under Chapter 48 and return a signed affidavit your clerk will accept.
3. Affidavit returned to your file
You get the signed, notarised return of service, usually the same or next business day, with the posting photographs attached.
4. Writ of possession coordinated
If it goes that far, we coordinate the writ with the sheriff's office and keep you posted on the lockout date.

Eviction Service West Palm Beach FAQs
How fast can Golden Process Service post an eviction notice in West Palm Beach?

Does a 3-day notice have to be hand-delivered in Florida?
No. Under §83.56, a 3-day notice may be hand-delivered to the tenant or posted conspicuously on the premises if the tenant is absent. Golden Process Service does both where possible and documents which method was used, since that detail is routinely challenged.
Can Golden Process Service serve a commercial eviction in West Palm Beach?
Yes. Commercial evictions in West Palm Beach run under Part I of Chapter 83 rather than the residential provisions, and the notice requirements come from the lease itself. Golden Process Service reads the lease's notice clause before serving so the delivery method matches what the lease requires.
What does eviction service cost in West Palm Beach?
Golden Process Service charges a flat rate per address for West Palm Beach eviction work, including up to three attempts and the signed affidavit. See goldenprocessservice.com/rates/ for the current table or call (888) 766-7497.
What happens if the tenant is never home?
For the notice stage, absence is fine — posting is expressly permitted. For the summons and complaint, Golden Process Service makes attempts at varied times in West Palm Beach and, if the tenant is genuinely evading, can pursue substitute service or an Affidavit of Diligent Search.
