To arrange a cremation, simply click the button below. You (the "Informant") will be asked a series of questions about the Decedent required by the State of California to complete a death certificate. There may be information you do not know. Use the word "Unknown" in those particular fields. Please note – the word "Unknown" will appear on the death certificate where you have indicated. No field can be left blank. You will NOT be contacted for clarification of this information – the word "Unknown" will be used in all fields left blank by you.

Once the information has been gathered, print the required forms, completed with your answers, along with further instructions. Sign, initial, and date the forms where indicated. Then fax the completed paperwork, along with any other required documentation, to California Cremation Centers as directed on the fax cover sheet that will print with your forms. Once everything is in order, we will proceed with the completion of arrangements.  Depending on the doctor or coroner signing of the death certificate, and crematory schedule, we will contact you once the cremated remains are ready for you in approximately 2-3 weeks. 

If you are ordering death certificates, they will be mailed to you directly from the health department in approximately 2-3 weeks.  If you have questions or technical difficulties, you may call us at (800) 466-6110 or email us at info@californiacremationcenters.com
