Cremation process and estimating the cremation services cost
Opting for cremation instead of burials and open funerals has more advantages in terms of financials and environment. Let us look into details and examine the whole cremation process too.
In the cremation process the dead body is taken into specially made cremation chamber where it is exposed to the high levels of heat. Under the intense heat the deceased body is tuned to ashes. The large bones which are not burnt are specially crushed and added to the ashes. In this process neither harmful gases nor liquids creep into the atmosphere so no pollutants evolve. This is not the case with the burials or open cremation. In the case of burials, the time taken for the deceased body to get completely decayed years needed to pass. In the other case of open cremation with the burning of dead body pollutant evolve and contaminate both air and nearby water bodies too. Concluding with the above reasons that cremation in the special cremation chambers is supported.
In terms of financials, burials or open cremation needed some or all of these: brick, mortar and plot of land – which increased the total cost. But with the cremation services they are not required where the major cost is reduced so affordable cremation services for all.
There are many factors that determine the cremation services cost. First let us look into the services that are involved during the whole cremation process. Major things are listed below:
- Ordering casket with or without decoration
- Decorations, candles, music, content and memoirs at the memory service
- Arranging for cremation memorial service
- Cremation process photos: photo or video shoot to make photo or video album with the whole cremation process.
- Transport facilities arrangement if required
- Dipping urn filled with ashes in nearby seas
- Inviting guests and arranging food stuff.
The above list comprises the whole cremation process. The order need not be in the same and few of them can be omitted too as per the budget. Depending on the geographical features and religious customs and above list one can estimate for the average price of cremation.
Even the average price for cremation can be brought down with slight changes in the caskets, urns and decorative things. Instead of going for high range of caskets one can order a normal one or even can opt for rent. Minimum decoration both for the casket and the cremation memorial service. Even the urns for which the ashes are collected post cremation to dip in the seas can be chosen a normal one.
