Frequently asked questions
Are you family-owned?
Yes, Lowest Cost Cremation & Burial has been family-owned and operated for over 15 years.
Why is family ownership important?
Because we do NOT have corporate shareholders to answer to and the money stays within our community.
Do all funeral homes own their own crematory?
No, most funeral homes do not own their own crematory. We do have our own privately owned crematory.
Why is having our own crematory important?
Your loved one stays with us the entire time and it is our staff that handle every aspect of caring for you and your family from place of death to returning the cremains to you. When a funeral home does NOT have a crematory, they must drive your loved one across town to a shared crematory and wait their turn, often picking up urns weeks later.
How long does the whole process take for cremation?
The whole process takes on average 7–10 business days from the time we get paperwork completed to us calling to say that the urn and death certificates are ready for pick up. This timeframe can fluctuate depending on the response time of the Doctor and Health Department, involvement of the Coroner, what county the death occurred in, and family dynamics.
Can you mail cremated remains?
Yes, we can ship remains anywhere in the U.S. via USPS Priority Express.
May I separate the cremains?
Yes. Families do this all the time. There is a fee we charge to do so as it takes time of a funeral arranger to handle this task.
What do Health departments typically charge for a death certificate?
Most counties in California charge $24 for each Death Certificate, although some charge up to $26. There is also a $12 fee for each permit issued.
What is the role of Department of Health?
The Health Department of the county where the death occurs has to first approve the causes of death given by the Doctor. The Doctor has to sign the death certificate, and that signature has to be approved by the Health Department before we can submit for final approval. The Health Department then prints off the Death Certificates for the funeral home.
Can I order additional death certificates later?
Yes, after the initial order, legal next of kin can purchase additional certified copies directly from the county Health Department.
Can I get extra Death Certificates on my own at any time?
Yes. Once the Death Certificate is given final authorization, legal next of kin can go to the Health Department to purchase official (Certified) copies of their own at the same fee.
What happens if they die with hospice at home?
The first call a family should make when a death occurs at home under hospice care is to the hospice provider. They will send one of their nurses to do the official pronunciation of death, and when finished, either they or the family can call the funeral home to initiate the transfer.
