Coffins & Caskets in ACT

When someone in the family dies, the surviving members will usually go to the funeral home and pick a casket or a coffin for the deceased to be buried in.

There are various types of coffins and caskets - From those made of solid timber, particleboard, protective metal and sustainable eco friendly options.

The casket should reflect the lifestyle, religion or even profession of the deceased. This is the last thing that people will want to remember despite the trials and triumphs one experienced in life.

Some choose a coffin that has space for people to add certain things that the dead will use in the after life that is very common in Asian cultures.

Most coffins come with a single or 2 hinge door. This is ideal for friends and family to see the deceased one last time before being buried into the ground.

Not all caskets are designed for burial. An urn can be purchased beforehand so the remains can be transferred there to be placed in the cemetery or brought home.
