How cremation works with our team

If your loved one has passed away, please let us know as soon as possible. Beacon Direct Cremation can be reached at 727-279-0202. Our specialists are available 24/7 to take your call. We can make arrangements for the transportation of the deceased to our facility promptly and respectfully.

Cremation usually occurs within one week of the initial consultation. In the meantime, our staff will handle all necessary paperwork and permits, including state approvals. Once the cremation process is complete, you can pick up the remains or have them delivered to a location of your choosing. Shipping within the U.S. is tracked through the United States Postal Service.

Beacon Direct Cremation owns and operates our own crematory. We take special precautions to ensure the proper handling of remains and have a personal identification system in place that follows the deceased at every step. Rest assured that they are being treated with the utmost care and respect.

How much does direct cremation cost?

The cost of cremation varies depending on factors such as location, type of cremation, and any additional services or packages chosen. At Beacon Direct Cremation, we offer transparent and affordable pricing for direct cremation. Our packages start at $995 and include local transportation to the crematory, refrigeration, securing all required authorizations, and filing of the death certificate. There are no hidden fees, and we will work with you to customize a package that meets your specific needs.

How to handle the cremation remains

Once the cremation is complete, you can choose what you wish to do with the remains or ashes. Some options include:

  • Keeping them at home: Many families keep the remains in a decorative urn or container as a way to feel closer to them.
  • Scattering: Ashes can be scattered in a meaningful location such as a favorite park or lake, in accordance with local laws and regulations.
  • Burial: Ashes can also be buried in a cemetery plot or memorial garden. This means the remains will be permanently interred and can be visited by loved ones at any time.
  • Sharing with family: Some families divide the ashes among multiple family members or have keepsake urns made to share with each other.
