Arrange a Cremation

Before you begin

With Branch & Pyre, it takes approximately 15 minutes to complete our online arrangement forms and pay for service.
For comparison, traditional in-person arrangements at a funeral home take approximately two to three hours, including driving, parking, and appointment time.
Cremation is an irreversible act.
The forms presented in the “Arrange A Cremation” section of our website are legally binding documents and therefore MUST be completed and signed by the decedent’s authorized, legal next-of-kin, and/or executor.
