Cremation Services in Bolingbrook, IL

Direct cremation starts at $997 and includes transportation from a hospital, climate-controlled holding, all filings and an individual cremation. Required additions bring a typical hospital-death total with four certified death certificates to $1,500.96: the $200 county permit, $40 for the first certificate and $20 for each additional, a $160 container, a $25 temporary urn and $18.96 tax. From a nursing center or home, add $295. Delivery of the cremated remains to your Bolingbrook home is free.

It depends on where the death happened. For most of Bolingbrook, including the hospital on Remington Boulevard, the Will County Coroner issues the permit. The northern part of the village is in DuPage County, where the DuPage County Coroner issues it. Either fee is included in our $200 county permit charge, and we file with the right office.

Most cremations finish within 5 to 10 business days. The clock really starts when the family signs the authorization, then depends on how quickly the coroner issues the permit and the physician signs the death certificate. If relatives are traveling in for a gathering, optional expedited cremation is available for $150, and we will give you a realistic date.

You can keep them at home, bury them in a cemetery plot or place them in a columbarium niche. A cemetery scattering garden is another choice, and private property is allowed with the owner’s consent. Public parks, forest preserves and waterways need permission from the agency that manages them before anyone scatters there.

Tell her nurse that Caring Cremations will be handling arrangements. The hospital is in Will County, so the Will County Coroner issues the cremation permit. The hospital will call us when she can be released, and a standard hospital transfer usually carries no removal charge.
