Dead Body Transportation By Air Services in Bhavnagar, Gujrat

Last Journey's stepwise method to conduct a well-timed and law-abiding transportation of the remains -:

The highly skilled, experienced and professional team members of Last Journey perform each task with great responsibility. Due to being a complex procedure, our team divides the entire process into several subtasks. The below-given steps explain the well-organized way to transfer the remains legally.

1. To get permission or clearance from the departments of the Bhavnagar administration -

Without obtaining the clearance documents or legal permits, the team or the family of the deceased can not carry forward the procedure. Therefore, we begin the task by informing the concerned authorities.

The departments check the provided information about the deceased person and after finding it valid, they grant a No Objection Certificate (NOC). A few other clearance documents will also be issued by the authorities.

After receiving these documents, the family or the team is allowed to collect the dead body from the location of death. The team members now shift the dead body to a certified mortuary. Here the postmortem of the remains takes place, if it is necessary.

2. Arrangement of the facilities for dignified and safe air transportation of the remains -

The workers of Last Journey have the contacts of certified funeral homes available in Bhavnagar. We establish contact with them to obtain the different services at the doorstep of the location. Take a look at them.

• For the safe road transportation of the remains in the city, we book an ambulance van. It will be spacious enough and well-equipped with all the basic to advanced medical services.
• While getting the legal permission clearance documents, the team keeps the dead body in a spacious cooling cabinet. It prevents the dead body from decomposition for a short span.
• If there are no religious restrictions on embalming according to the faith or community to which the deceased person belonged, the team shifts the remains to a certified embalming center.
• To keep the embalmed remains safe while air transportation, the team arranges a customized coffin box. We also collect the certificate of this coffin box.
• For a highly dignified relocation of the remains, the family can include a metal container in the dead body air transportation services. It will be equipped with advanced features and great space to place the body comfortably.

Is embalming essential in domestic dead-body air transportation?

Yes, because the body becomes highly prone to damaging causes. Embalming keeps the organs and the skin fresh and undamaged till the final rites. In this medical treatment, the team of embalming doctors replaces the dead body fluid with a chemical substance. It has disinfecting properties that improve the surviving capacity of the deceased body.

The embalmed remains take final rest in the certified coffin box. Our team workers seal the coffin box properly. The box will restrain the liquid and odor of the dead body inside it.

3. List of the required documents for a complete paperwork -:

In the self-transportation performed by family members, there are chances to miss a few documents. To eliminate such conditions, we provide a list comprising all the necessary documents or certificates.

Take a look at them.

4. Booking of the ticket and doorstep delivery of the deceased body -:
