Selection of the casket or cremation container is a very personal decision, and one major area where the cost is totally within your control. Prices range from $125 for a very basic cardboard cremation container, which is suitable for direct cremation with no viewing. There are many choices in all price ranges for cloth covered caskets, veneer woods, solid hardwood, metal caskets, as well as rental caskets. Price is determined by the material used and the workmanship involved in manufacturing a casket.

Many caskets offer special features such as interchangeable corners and personalized head panels. These features allow a family to reflect the interests of their loved ones when choosing a casket. From gardening to golfing, hunting to fishing – there is a large selection of corners that allow a casket to uniquely honour a life well lived.

Enviro containers and caskets are specifically designed to produce no harmful emissions during cremation. They are constructed of wood with no varnished finish or metal parts, and even the interior is made of natural cotton. These caskets are available from simple cremation containers, to caskets that are very suitable for visiting.

The caskets that are available in the funeral home selection room represent a small sample of the hundreds of caskets that are available from the various manufacturers, and we can help you make a selection that meets your needs and your financial expectations.
