Secure Ashes Storage After Cremation
Some families choose not to collect their loved one’s ashes immediately after cremation, often due to cultural practices, grief, superstition, or practical circumstances. In many traditions, delaying collection can show respect, avoid perceived bad luck, or allow time for the family to prepare for memorialization according to specific rites. Black Tulip Funerals offers discreet and secure ashes storage for as long as required, providing peace of mind during a challenging time.
Why Families May Delay Collection
Cultural Beliefs and Superstitions: Some cultures advise against keeping ashes at home or urge waiting before moving remains, believing this helps the spirit transition peacefully or avoids negative energy in the household.
Personal Circumstances: Families may need more time to plan a memorial, coordinate travel, or arrange scattering or interment at a later date.
Respect and Care: Storing ashes securely ensures dignity and safety for the remains until the family feels ready for collection or ceremony.
Transparent and Flexible Storage Options
After cremation, families receive two weeks of complimentary ashes storage from the cremation date. Beyond this period, a fee of $2 per day is charged for continued secure storage, payable upon collection.
First 2 Weeks: Complimentary storage from the date of cremation
After 2 Weeks: $2 per day for continued secure storage
Payment: Payable upon collection
