When a loved one passes away in Florida, but their family lives in another state—or vice versa—it can feel overwhelming. Questions arise quickly: Can I arrange cremation remotely? What paperwork is needed? How do I ensure everything is handled respectfully if I’m not there in person?
At Going Home Cremations, we work with families across the country every day to coordinate direct cremation in Florida, even when they can’t be here in person. This guide walks you through how it works, what to expect, and how we make the process as simple and compassionate as possible.

📍 Who This Applies To
– Families who live out of state but have a loved one pass away in Florida

🧾 What You’ll Need to Arrange Cremation Remotely
You don’t need to be in Florida to begin the cremation process. Here’s what we’ll help you complete:
✅ Vital Statistics Form
This includes basic information about the deceased, such as full name, date of birth, and place of death.
✅ Cremation Authorization Form
This legal document must be signed by the next of kin or authorized representative.
✅ Death Certificate Information
We file the death certificate on your behalf and can order certified copies for you.
