Professional Transportation Services
We provide professional transportation services for the deceased, ensuring dignified transfer to the desired place of burial or final disposition. Prior to or immediately following the transportation, families may utilize our mortuary services where qualified staff can prepare the body for the funeral.
Our expertise encompasses all necessary arrangements for the movement of the deceased. We offer provision of appropriate transport, including hearses and vehicles for pallbearers and family, guaranteeing a seamless procession and transfer to the final location.
We have extensive experience in the international transportation of the deceased. We guarantee prompt service, utilizing certified, specialized transport and providing comprehensive assistance with all required documentation. Whether you choose a local cemetery or require international transfer, we will deliver the body to the selected final resting place.
For long-distance or international transfers, we utilize specialized vehicles and offer the rental of a sealed (zinc-lined) casket, ensuring the body remains preserved and compliant with all regulations over any distance. The entire transportation procedure, including adherence to all necessary formalities for international transit, is meticulously overseen by a competent funeral agency professional, guaranteeing safe and secure delivery.
How to book transportation services?
Fill out the Application Form
The process begins with your initial contact by completing our online or physical application form. We gather all preliminary details regarding the deceased, the current location of the body, the intended final destination (cemetery, crematory, or foreign airport), and the desired timeframe to immediately begin assessing the logistical needs and scope of work.
We will contact you
Following the submission of your application, a dedicated transportation specialist will personally contact you. We will confirm the transfer route, provide a transparent cost estimate based on distance and vehicle type (hearse, specialized transport), and finalize the precise date and time of the pickup and delivery to ensure a seamless and punctual transfer.
Document Preparation
This crucial stage involves collecting and formalizing all required legal documentation necessary for the transport. We ensure we have the official Death Certificate and all relevant permits—especially important for long-distance or international transfers—to guarantee that the deceased can be moved legally and respectfully to the chosen final location without any delays.
