What is ecremation?

A convenience service of Twin Cities Cremation, LLC

ecremationmn.com allows you to participate in a last act of caring for your loved one.
With your computer, smart phone, or tablet and in the time it would take you to drive to the funeral home you can save yourself significant costs with our direct cremation services of $995, which includes everything associated with direct cremation including medical examiner fees. We guarantee to be the lowest cost cremation provider in Minnesota because you help with the process. Here is how it works:

At the time of death call us directly at 651-237-4804.  Arrangements will be made to bring your loved one into our care.

Please Note: To keep our cremation service price low, we will make all transfers during 9 a.m.- 5 p.m. If after-hours transfers are needed an additional charge of $595 will be collected over the phone.
