Basic Unattended Services

Information: We've been handling the dignified disposition of cremains since 1997. Each person is handled individually with care and concern. The ashes are slowly poured into the ocean. Ashes are not commingled. All ashes are dispersed separately and will have a different GPS location.

Our San Diego location offers at no additional charge: A few digital photos emailed to you upon request; a phone call on the day we are going out to scatter the ashes.

The information below is for our San Diego location, however, we have other locations available for unattended services including Los Angeles, Long Beach, Redondo Beach, Florida and more.

$195.00* - includes filing of burial permit(s) for out of State deaths

Please read instructions on how to send ashes. We offer local San Diego pickup (certain areas no charge), or you may deliver them to our office - close to Mission Valley, call for directions.

  • We will need a certified copy of your loved one's death certificate unless you have a California burial permit already stating disposition to be "At sea off the coast of San Diego County."
  • Barring bad weather or sea conditions, your loved one's ashes will be scattered at sea usually within 30 days of receipt. California law requires ashes be scattered within 60 days of receipt.*
  • We scatter ashes about 1 mile off of the San Diego coast - Other locations available.
