If
you are planning to have an attended burial at sea (ash scattering) then
you may just bring the ashes with you the day
of the charter.
If you have decide to use a biodegradable
urn during
the burial at sea, it would still be helpful to receive the ashes prior
to the event. This gives us time to place the ashes in the urn and ensure
everything is sealed properly.
If you wish to have us scatter the ashes in you absence or will be viewing
from shore, we will need to receive the ashes before the day of the event.
The easiest way is to just drop the ashes off at our office in person.
If this is not possible, the ashes may be mailed. You will also have
to complete this
Ash Scattering Authorization form
to allow us to scatter the ashes on your behalf.
Mailing the ashes may require you to have
a transport permit. Just give
us a call and we will help you determine this and will obtain the permit
for you if necessary.
Mailing Guidelines
If you intend to send the ashes to us keep in
mind that only the US Postal service or a private courier are allowed
to ship ashes. Companies such as USP and Fedex are NOT allowed
to.
The ashes must be packed in a siltproof container
and the contents of the package should be specified as "Cremated
human ashes". Please send by registered
mail with a return receipt service.
