Facts About The Manhattan Cremation Services

By Beryl Dalton


In the recent years, many families have actively adopted cremation. This method of resting a deceased has been perceived to be fast and relatively cheaper than the traditional burial methods. A normal such process takes about 2 to three to completion. The difference in time between various bodies depends on the body size of the deceased. A larger body will take longer to cremate. The Manhattan cremation uses containers like cardboard trays, canvas bags or wooden caskets.

The percentage that uses caskets for this process is very low; only approximately 15 percent. This means that the rest 85 percent use a less expensive container mainly a cardboard container or a canvas body bag. The practice involves exposing the body and the container to very high heat which burns them down to remains called cremains. A normal body of a deceased will give approximately 6 pounds of the cremains. These ashes are grey in color.

Funeral homes in Manhattan are offering this service at relatively affordable prices. They do these themselves or subcontract the services of various crematories in the city. There is a misconception about cremation that confuses many people. It is however crucial to note that a buried body will decompose after years and become ashes just like what burning up achieves.

A memorial process can be accompanied by all the services that a normal traditional funeral service would have. A memorial service can be carried out before or after the process. If it is done before, then the deceased is taken to the cemetery or sea directly after being cremated. However if you deem to really reduce costs, you can do the process without any memorial service. This is known as Direct Cremation.

Considering direct cremation would be the most appropriate economical option. This method is the least expensive among all. It will facilitate the disposition of the deceased immediately without having to put them in the morgue for days. This will save you a considerable amount of fees which would have otherwise catered for the morgue charges.

The process in this case is simple. After the demise, the deceased is taken from the place of death and taken to the funeral service location. Here the preparations for the cremation take place. No viewing or visitation is required in this case hence there is no need for embalming and other body preparations. The relevant paperwork like death certificates is completed and then the body is cremated.

There would be no need to buy a casket but in case you need one, consider hiring. The body is cremated in an alternative container hence the casket will be useless after the process. Call various Manhattan funeral homes and get the best with affordable hiring rates.

If you are looking to save money but still get quality services, search around for the best Manhattan funeral homes and crematories. Compare their prices and choose the most affordable. You can dispose cremains at the sea or cemetery.
