A Private Cremation is the most costly because we will run the unit just for your pet, the price for this service has increased.  A Partitioned Cremation Service is less costly because you will share the cost of running the unit with another family.  A fire brick wall will be built inside the retort (cremation chamber) to partition off your pet from others.  Both Private and Partitioned services will return your pet to you in a plastic urn or  one of your choosing from www.sacredpaws.com at an added cost.  The least costly Pet Cremation is a Communal Cremation Service.  With a Communal Cremation you will not get the ashes back.  Your pet will be processed with several others; co-mingling during the process will not allow us to return pet cremated remains  from a communal service with any integrity. 





 Private Service: Ashes Returned
A Private Service is when your companion / pet is the only pet in the retort / cremation unit.  A Private cremation service will return the cremated remains (ashes) in a black marble pattern, or white pearl plastic urn at no added cost or one of your choosing from www.sacredpaws.com at an added cost.

Partitioned Service: Ashes Returned
A Partitioned service is when your pet will share the unit with another family's pet; but, will be separated by a fire brick wall.  We will build a fire brick wall between each pet giving your companion his or her Partitioned section of the cremation chamber.  Ashes are returned in an urn of your choosing. 

Communal or Group Service:  Ashes Not Returned
The least costly Pet Cremation is a Communal Cremation Service.  With a communal cremation you will not get the ashes back.  Your pet will be processed with several others; co-mingling during the process will not allow us to return pet cremated remains from a communal service with any integrity.  The cremated remains will be scattered on property surrounding the Sacred Paws Pet Crematory at 149 Lela Lane, Jacksonville, NC 28540.
