I hope this will allow you to provide meaningful memorialization for your loved ones without violating any laws, rules and regulations -- or the rights of other individuals
Transporting cremated remains
A number of conditions must be met and documentation must be in place to ship cremated remains. Please be aware that, although not all documentation is checked, the paperwork is nonetheless necessary for the actual transfer of cremated remains to take place.
Mailing
Mailing the container is the most cost effective transportation option, it is also the slowest as it can take 1 or 2 weeks before the TCC reaches its final destination. When mailing the cremated remains we prefer you send the TCC by registered mail or courier service. Although slightly more expensive you will take comfort in knowing the TCC will be assigned a tracking number and delivered in person to the consignee and there will be a signed record of its receipt.
When transporting cremated remains the TCC in which the remains are placed must be properly identified.
The TCC is then placed in a suitable "box" with all seams taped closed to increase the security and integrity of that container. Attached to the outside of the box is a specifically designed envelope containing the documentation.(Shipping labels like Fed/Ex or UPS use)
