Funera Sydney, when handling a cremation, delivers the ashes in a medical-grade PVC urn. Families can opt to scatter them or transfer them into a decorative urn or keepsake.

Scattering ashes can be a poignant tribute to reconnect the departed with nature or a cherished place.

• Permission may be needed for public land scattering, and local council regulations should be checked.
• Private property scattering typically requires permission from the landowner.
• Specialised services like Dust to Dust or Sydney Harbour Escapes offer unique settings for scattering.
• For a memorable send-off, consider a fireworks display with Ashes to Ashes.

Ashes can find a permanent home in a burial plot, crematorium garden bed, or niche wall, a practice known as 'interment.'

• Often, families choose to inter cremated remains with other deceased family members.

Transform ashes into a living memorial tree for those passionate about the environment.

• Funera Sydney guides you on incorporating a tree planting ceremony into the memorial service.
