Helpful Info from the Funeral Consumer Alliance

Traditionally, caskets have been sold only by funeral homes. But now, under the Funeral Rule, you can buy a casket from an outside source and have it shipped directly to the funeral home.

The Funeral Rule also requires funeral homes to agree to use a casket you bought elsewhere, and doesn’t allow them to charge you a fee for using it.

Funeral Industry-friendly laws and regulations can force you to spend more than you want to on a casket or coffin.

While you are free to buy a casket anywhere you like, some states are still trying to keep out competition by outlawing outside casket sales.

For many years, the funeral home industry practice was to wrap the cost of the funeral service into the sale price of caskets, with a mark-up of 300-500-700% or more.

The average cost of a funeral in the U.S. is ($7,200*) thats almost three times that in Great Britain ($1,650) and more than twice what it is in France ($2,200) or Australia ($2,100).

Shipping Note: Our casket's are shipped via truck freight to the lower 48 US States only, average delivery time is 4-7 business days.

We will call you to schedule a delivery time. Delivery can be made directly to any funeral home or business address.

We are one of the few casket companies in the United States that still make the traditional style of wooden coffins that are used in many of the European countries today.
 
We are very proud to offer this new line of caskets specifically for those who have served in the American Armed Forces.

Many on-line casket retailers and funeral homes use the term "wood casket" but many, if not most of their caskets use a very thin veneer of wood over pressed board construction, they are not true "wood caskets".

Beware of foreign made caskets, in recent years the importing of foreign made caskets & coffins has increased dramatically, the wholesale costs and the overall quality of these caskets are much lower than domestically made ones.

Our caskets & coffins are made here in the USA using solid wood lumber in all parts of the casket, including the lid, box, even the bottom.
