Controlling Costs
- Direct Cremation is the least expensive option for those on a budget. Direct cremation includes transportation to the crematorium, and you will receive the ashes in a simple cardboard box within two weeks.
- Direct Burial is another cost saving option. Transportation is included along with a simple casket. Embalming and viewing are not available with this option, and cemetery plots must be purchased separately. Please see the following website for more information on direct burials http://www.imortuary.com/blog/direct-burial/
