The Direct Cremation Package is designed for those who “just want to be cremated” without any service or ceremony; or for those who intend to conduct a memorial service on their own without the assistance of a funeral home. The Direct Cremation Package includes the following items (required to perform a cremation):

1. Basic services of funeral director and staff,
2. Transfer of deceased from place of death to our location,
3. Refrigeration of deceased (one day),
4. Basic cardboard cremation container for the body,
5. Cremation process,
6. Coroner’s authorization fee,
7. Notification of Social Security and Veterans Administration where applicable.

Note: ground transportation in excess of 25 miles of our facility is $3 per mile each way. In addition to everything required to perform a cremation this package includes:

• Online obituary (if desired).  Family must provide
• Submission of local obituary (if desired)

Note: This package does NOT include an urn. If an urn is not selected, the cremated remains will be returned to the authorized representative in a basic temporary plastic container. Note : In order to receive the “Pre-Paid Price” of $1,395, one must preplan and pre-pay at least 24 hours prior to death using our secure website.
