Do funeral homes in Huber Heights Ohio require caskets before cremation?
It greatly depends on your preference and the arrangement between you and the funeral home. The crematorium that will perform the cremation process usually has a minimum requirement of a rigid container in which the deceased will be incased. That is why it is really important to coordinate with the funeral director to properly pre-plan your funeral arrangement.
Where can I scatter cremated remains?
It’s always now or never for scattering the remains of the deceased. So careful consideration must be followed. The first thing you need to remember that cremains cannot be retrieved. If you want to scatter the cremains on public land you need to consult with the town’s governing body if it is permissible. On privately owned land you must obtain the approval of the landowner. If you wish to scatter on bodies of water, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires a minimum of three nautical miles offshore. Always ask for assistance from your funeral director in obtaining the required information.
Is cremation cheaper than a burial?
Yes, because cremation does not require embalming. Burials require a casket and a grave to inter the deceased body. Direct cremation is among the cheapest cremation option because your loved one’s body would go directly to the crematorium, thus skipping the process of embalming and other expensive funeral services.
