Other Options

Metropolitan Direct Cremation Service is not a typical mortuary.  We are a mortuary for individuals who know that they only desire a simple cremation.  

 

We offer a wide variety of traditional funeral urns, alternative cremation urns for burial, scattering, or returning cremated remains to a residence.  Offerings include wooden urns, metal urns, ceramic urns, bronze urns, infant urns and keepsake urns.

 

Aerial scatterings of cremated remains can be a meaningful part of the grieving process to the families. When the remains are scattered over a special designated area, the observing family can have a visual image permanently ingrained in their memory.
