After the funeral service, the funeral director removes the inner container from the outer casket shell. The inner container holding the body is then transported to the place of final disposition, usually a crematorium. The outer casket is
reused for a number of services. Eventually the casket reaches a
point of wear and it is destroyed. Because its usage is limited, the rental
casket is replaced after a relatively small number of uses. However, due to the
reusable nature of these units they can be also appreciated by families with
environmental concerns. |
