Unfortunately, sooner or later people die. Sometimes the relatives of the deceased express a desire to bury him in another city, where, for example, he was born or where his whole family lives. At such moments, the question of transportation arises.
There are special companies that transport the body of the deceased to any necessary city within the country or abroad. Such shipments are called "cargo 200". The deceased can be transported by plane, train or special vehicle.
Road transport
The most affordable means of transportation is considered to be motor transport, since in this case there will be no need to collect many documents and obtain permission to export the body to another city. As a rule, a hearse is ordered, which is equipped with mounts for the coffin, and also has the ability to take two accompanying persons.
To conclude a transportation contract, you will need a death certificate and - preferably - a document confirming the relationship with the deceased.
Plane
If, nevertheless, the distance is too great, then you can use the services of air transport. This is a very fast form of transportation, but one of the most expensive. The cost of transportation from the place of death to the place of burial is approximately 20,000 rubles. In this case, you will have to buy a zinc coffin, which will ensure the safety of the body of the deceased. It must be sealed and sheathed with metal. The coffin is placed in a special box made of wood, and the free space in the box is filled with sawdust.
In addition to this, it will be necessary to collect a package of documents, which includes certificates of the deceased, as well as a permit for transportation. In some cases, the coffin must be accompanied. For the transportation of the deceased, both cargo and passenger planes are used, where the coffin is placed in the luggage compartment. Transportation is carried out in such a way that the passengers of the plane do not know about it.
The death of a loved one is a terrible event. More terrible can only be the fact that the deceased person is far from the family. However, there are companies that will not only help in transportation, but will treat the wishes of loved ones with understanding.
Rail transportation
In the case of transporting the deceased by train, it is also necessary to collect the entire package of documents, as with air transportation. But it is necessary to take into account in advance that the train must include a carriage with luggage or mail, since it is in such carriages that the coffins are placed. The coffin must be accompanied by a trusted person. In order to transport the coffin from the morgue to the train, as well as from the train to the burial place, you will need a specialized hearse car, which can be ordered from a company that deals with ritual services. The cost of transporting the deceased by train is about 5,000 rubles.
