We provide 3 cremation options, and each of them can be customized to meet your specific requirements.

1. Traditional cremation services. This type of funeral service is similar to a traditional one. The deceased person's body is placed in a specially-chosen cremation casket or a rental casket, and it becomes the centerpiece of the ceremony. Before the funeral service, a visitation can take place. After the cremation process, the cycle is completed, instead of going through a traditional burial. The cremated remains are then given back to the family, who can decide to scatter, bury, or keep them in an urn.
2. Memorial gathering after the cremation has taken place. This can occur at any time after the cremation process. The urn is usually on display at the service, which can take place in any setting preferred by the family.
3. Direct cremation. This involves the transportation of the deceased from their place of passing to the crematory, after all necessary paperwork is completed.

Alternative Cremation Options in New Jersey

The latest innovation in cremation is a process of alkaline hydrolysis, sometimes called resomation. The process was developed in the United States in the late 1990s. The Cremation Association of North America describes the process as "a water-based dissolution process for human remains that uses alkaline chemicals, heat, and sometimes agitation and-or pressure, to accelerate natural decomposition".

This new process of cremation uses less energy and doesn't release any carbon or matter into the atmosphere, unlike the traditional method. However, not all regions have implemented the necessary legislative changes for funeral homes to offer this service to families. Additionally, the equipment costs for this new process are higher than those of the conventional retort, which currently limits the availability of resomation cremation services.
