Direct Cremation - FAQ
1. How is Delco Cremation different than other cremation providers?
2. What does Direct Cremation mean?
3. How long does the process take from start to finish?
4. Can I pre-plan a direct cremation?
Answer: Direct Cremation means removing a person's body directly from the place of death to the crematorium - the body is placed in refrigeration, not embalmed, viewed or prepared for any services except for the cremation itself - upon completion the cremains are immediately returned to the family.
Answer: Typically, the process can take anywhere from 4-7 days - state and county permits must be filed prior to the cremation process, as well as the filing of the PA Death Certificate.
Answer: Yes - anyone can pre-plan and pre-pay a direct cremation with one of Delco Cremation's licensed Funeral Directors. Contact our office at 610-892-1970 for a pre-planning packet and what the next steps are.
Answer - While other funeral homes charge upwards of $3,000-4,000 for direct cremations, Delco Cremation packages start at $995 -- Delco Cremation offers the most AFFORDABLE cremation packages in Delaware County. Our process is streamlined and completed easily over the phone or via e-mail with a Licensed Funeral Director
