Cremation Services at Affordable Cremation Solutions

Call Affordable Cremation Solutions. Our team will guide you through the next steps and coordinate bringing your loved one into our care.

If the death occurs at a hospital, hospice facility, nursing home, or other care facility, their staff may ask which funeral or cremation provider you have selected. Simply provide them with our information.

If your loved one is under hospice care, contact the hospice provider and Affordable Cremation Solutions. Hospice will typically make the required pronouncement, and we can then coordinate bringing your loved one into our care.

If the death is unexpected and your loved one is not under hospice care, call 911. Once the appropriate authorities have completed their procedures and released your loved one, we can assist with the next steps.

Direct cremation is a simple form of cremation without a funeral ceremony or viewing beforehand. We bring your loved one into our care, complete the necessary paperwork and permits, perform the cremation, and return the cremated remains to the family.

Choosing direct cremation does not mean you cannot have a meaningful service or

permanent place of remembrance. Many families choose to hold a memorial service or celebration of life and select a final resting place following the cremation.

We believe families should understand their options and costs before making a

decision. Our cremation packages are designed to provide straightforward choices at affordable prices.

Contact us or view our cremation options to see current pricing and what is included with each package.

We work hard to keep our pricing clear and easy to understand. Certain circumstances may result in additional charges, such as transportation outside our standard service area, special handling requirements, additional death certificates, or other services requested by the family.

We will explain applicable charges before arrangements are finalized.

Not necessarily. Many cremation arrangements can be completed electronically and over the phone, allowing families to make arrangements from home.

If you would rather meet with someone in person, our team is happy to assist you.

Once we receive the call and your loved one has been released to us, our team will

coordinate transportation as promptly as possible.

Timing can vary depending on location, facility release procedures, medical examiner  involvement, and other circumstances.

Your loved one remains in our care throughout the entire process. Cremation takes place right here on our property, meaning your loved one does not leave our care or get transferred to an off-site crematory.

This allows us to maintain direct oversight and continuity of care from the time your

loved one arrives through the completion of the cremation.

Identification and chain of custody are extremely important to us. Each individual is carefully identified and tracked throughout the entire cremation process using established identification procedures.

Because the cremation takes place on our property, your loved one remains in our care throughout the process.

arrangements, we work closely with an affiliated funeral service company that can

and provide authorization.

multiple family members, or other circumstances, our staff will help determine what documentation and authorizations are required.

Yes. We can help coordinate arrangements when a death occurs away from home, including working with funeral homes, transportation providers, and other professionals when necessary.

We encourage families to think beyond the cremation itself.

A memorial service, life celebration, or family gathering gives those who loved the

person an opportunity to come together, share memories, support one another, and

honor a life that mattered. Just as important is deciding on a meaningful final place for the cremated remains.

Many families choose burial in a cemetery, placement in a cremation garden or niche, or another permanent place of remembrance. Others may choose scattering where legally permitted.

There is no single right choice, but we believe having a service and establishing a

thoughtful final place of rest can be an important part of honoring your loved one and creating a place for future generations to remember them.

Our team can help you understand the options available and connect you with our

affiliated funeral service company when you would like assistance planning a service or final placement.

Yes. Cremated remains can be buried in a cemetery just like traditional casketed

remains. Many cemeteries also offer cremation gardens, niches, and other permanent memorialization options.

Choosing a permanent place of rest gives family and future generations a dedicated

place to visit, remember, and honor their loved one.

Yes. Cremated remains can generally be divided into multiple urns or keepsakes if the person with legal authority requests it.

Yes. We will assist with filing the necessary information to obtain certified copies of thedeath certificate.

The number of copies you need depends on your circumstances. Certified copies are commonly needed for financial institutions, insurance policies, property, investments, and other legal or financial matters.

We can assist families with obituary information and available publication options. Our staff can explain what is included with your arrangements and any additional options

available.

That's completely normal.

You don't need to have everything figured out before calling us. Our job is to explain the options, answer your questions, and help you make the decisions that are right for your family.

We believe affordable cremation should still come with exceptional care, dignity, and personal service.

Your loved one remains in our care throughout the process, with the cremation taking place right here on our property. Our experienced team works to make arrangements simple, keep pricing straightforward, and return your loved one's cremated remains promptly.

respect, and dignity—every step of the way.
