Discount caskets can be used for either burials or cremations. Discount caskets reflect the individuality of the decedents and can be an honorable memorial to their life and allow loved ones to be presented in a noble manner. Discount caskets serve many important roles before leading loved ones to their final resting places. Discount caskets offer a substantial degree of protection for the earthly remains of decedents during final disposition. Discount caskets are commonly constructed with either wood or metal. Metal discount caskets are available in steel that vary in 20 Gauge, 18 Gauge or 16 Gauge thicknesses. They are available in semi-precious metals such as bronze, copper or stainless steel. Wooden discount caskets can be created by using many wood species such as ash, cherry, hickory, mahogany, maple, oak, pecan, pine, poplar or walnut. Wooden discount caskets require greater hand labor when constructed than metal units. Therefore, wooden discount caskets usually cost more than metal caskets. The interiors can be made from various materials such as crepe, satin, or velvet with many different styles and colors to choose from.
Many people choose cremation for final disposition. Discount caskets can be rented for visitations and funeral services, which will eliminate the cost of purchasing a casket. If you decide to have a direct cremation without a viewing then you are not required to purchase a casket. An alternative container can be purchased for the cremation process to be completed.
Today, it is more common for people to purchase discount caskets from third parties such as from showrooms or websites. Generally, the purchase is more cost effective from a third party. For your protection, when shopping for discount caskets, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) “Funeral Rule” requires the funeral director to show you a general Price List (GPL) of discount caskets the company sells, with descriptions and pricings, before showing you the vessels. The FTC also allows the consumer to purchase any casket or funeral merchandise from someone other than the company you are utilizing at no penalty.
