How long does it take to receive your loved one's ashes?
In most cases, families receive their loved one’s ashes within 5 to 10 days, depending on the state and how quickly all required paperwork is completed.
- In Indiana: The timeline is typically 7–10 days, due to a mandatory 48-hour waiting period and the need for a physician or coroner’s signature before cremation can proceed.
- In Kentucky: Families usually receive ashes within 5–7 days, as the coroner typically signs the cremation permit within 24–48 hours.
Delays can sometimes occur due to paperwork, holidays, or pending authorizations, but our team works diligently to ensure a smooth and timely process. We’ll keep you informed every step of the way.
