Affordable Cremation Services of Ohio

What is Cremation, and How Does it Work?

Cremation is a dignified and eco-friendly alternative to traditional burial. The process involves exposing the body to high temperatures, typically between 1400°F to 1800°F, to reduce it to its basic elements. The resulting ashes, also known as cremated remains, can be stored in an urn, scattered in a special location, or buried in a cemetery.

In Ohio, cremation is a popular choice, with over 40% of families opting for this method. The process typically takes a few hours, and the ashes are returned to the family within a few days.

The Benefits of Cremation

Cremation offers several advantages over traditional burial, including:

• Cost-effectiveness: Cremation can save you up to 70% compared to traditional burial costs.
• Environmental benefits: Cremation reduces the need for land, embalming fluids, and other resources required for traditional burials.
• Flexibility: Cremation allows for more flexibility in terms of memorialization, scattering, or burial options.
• Simplified planning: Cremation often requires less planning and coordination compared to traditional burials.
