How a Santa Cruz order is worked
Address details from intake travel with the order to the assigned process server. For an institutional address, that’s the recipient’s department and any visitor procedures. For a downtown storefront, that’s the operating hours and suite. For a residential address, that’s the unit and any access notes. Each visit is documented in the account.
