My county would cremate and Inter the ashes in a mass columbaria.+1 Absolutely. I agree.
Now I'm wondering, what does local government do if some homeless person dies and nobody claims the body? I have no idea (none!) but who knows, maybe they'd cremate the body and bury the ashes in some sort of mass paupers' grave. For $0.00 .
Central NY. Just had my Uncle cremated this week.
$1,280 for transporting the body to the crematorium, cremation, ashes in a plastic bag in a cardboard box, 3 death certificates.
We will probably have him buried in his parents plot, that will cost about another $1,600
First funeral home quoted $4k for the cremation.
