When it’s time to say goodbye to your loved one, we understand there are a lot of decisions to make. When choosing a cremation, a common question is ‘Do you have to buy a coffin?’ Contrary to the assumption that a coffin is optional for a cremation, it is required for this kind of funeral. Let’s delve into the reasons why.
At Heritage Brothers Funeral Services, we place a strong focus on upholding the dignity of the departed. It’s one of our foundational principles and extends to every aspect of their services, especially in cremations.
Our insistence on using a coffin is grounded in our belief that every person, regardless of their chosen service, deserves respect. Placing your loved one in a coffin is a symbolic gesture that acknowledges their journey from life to the afterlife and is a tangible expression of respect for the individual’s life and the loss they’ve left behind.
Beyond these emotional aspects, a coffin is required for a cremation for safety reasons. Cremation machinery requires precise handling to ensure a smooth and secure process. The coffin serves as a container and ensures secure placement of the deceased into the cremator. This minimises potential risks associated with the operation.
Using a coffin ensures we can maintain the highest standard of care and professionalism throughout the cremation process. It ensures dignity in handling the deceased and enables the Heritage Brothers Funeral Services’ team to safely manage the placement of their coffin/casket into the cremator.
