This tab will enter you into our quote builder to let you know the costs associated with our services.   Our Standard cremation package, shipping of cremains fee and the cremation permit are required.

Choose Your Package

If you are choosing a cremation where your family is paying directly to use, choose the Standard Cremation Package. Otherwise, if you feel your family has no funds, the deceased was under Title 19 and has little to no resources or assets to pay for the cremation,  he/she may be eligible for State of Wisconsin burial funds assistance. If so, please visit out M.A. Program  page.

Select Additional Services

Click Yes or No to all the services we provide.

Please read through each question slowly, as some charges may not apply, such as after hours.  If a family member passed away at a facility with a morgue, we do not charge those fees, as we would dispatch a funeral director the next day.   

If your family needs death certificates, please make sure you click $20 for the first and indicate how many more you need in the following drop box. Other charges you will see are optional and some families find those services valuable, such as obituary posting and fingerprints for future keepsake purchases.

Select the Appropriate State & Administrative Fees

County Permit:  Please choose the county of death for a cremation permit fee that is required



County coroner DC signing fees and removal fees - if you are unsure if the coroner will be charging your family those fees, please leave unfilled.  If those apply, we will notify you accordingly after your family member is taken into our care. 

Deceased Information

Please fill in all the boxes, as this will provide the required information about yourself, the deceased family member.  This will help us start the death certificate process.

Complete By Paying Online

In exchange for our discounted services, we do ask for a family or friend to pay online via our portal in full upon the initial death notification.

Finally, please let the facility, hospice nurse or coroner know that First Wisconsin Cremation will be assisting your family with the cremation.  Please call them and provide our contact number (855) 832-1956.  They in turn will call us back to ensure your family is released and we can them into our care.
