Why people in Auburndale call
The requests I get most from this side of the county:
- Powers of attorney and family paperwork.
- Vehicle powers of attorney and bills of sale.
- Documents for warehouse and logistics employees, signed around shift times.
- Closings and refinances at home.
- Affidavits for insurance and benefit claims.
Getting to you in Auburndale
Auburndale is about twelve minutes from Lakeland along Highway 92, so same-day and short-notice visits are usually realistic.
With the distribution and logistics employers along the corridor, a fair number of appointments here happen early in the morning or right after a shift ends rather than during office hours.
For a single document with no witnesses needed, an online session is usually quicker than any drive.
What a visit looks like
You tell me the address and a time, including evenings and weekends. I arrive with everything needed, check identification, witness the signatures and complete the certificates on the spot.
Home, office, hospital, care facility, a café or a parking lot — wherever suits the people signing.
Or skip the travel entirely
If the document is straightforward and the receiving office accepts electronic notarization, a remote online session takes about fifteen minutes and costs no travel fee. It is often the better answer for a single signature.
What to have ready
- The document, complete and unsigned.
- Current, government-issued photo ID for everyone signing.
- Witnesses, if the document requires them — I cannot act as both notary and witness.
- The correct notarial certificate, or a call to the receiving office to find out which one they want.
Frequently asked questions
- Do you charge extra to travel to Auburndale?
- There is a travel fee based on distance and time of day, agreed with you before I set out. The notarial fee itself is capped by Florida law at $10 per act.
- Can you come today?
- Often yes, including evenings and weekends. Call rather than email if it is for today.
- Can you come before work?
- Yes. Early mornings and evenings are normal here, and I schedule around shifts.
- Can you meet several employees at one workplace?
- Yes, and it is the most efficient way: one visit, each signature notarized separately.
