Funeral Shipping, Handled With Care

When distance separates a family, we coordinate every detail with care—from South Florida to destinations across the country and around the world.

Complete Funeral Shipping Coordination

Whether your loved one is traveling to another state, returning home from Florida, or being transported internationally, Serenity provides one point of contact throughout the process.


Our funeral directors help coordinate:


• Transfer into our care

• Preparation and an approved shipping container, when required

• Transit permits and other required documentation

• Airline or air-cargo arrangements

• Consulate or embassy requirements for international transportation

• Communication with the receiving funeral home

• Shipment details and arrival information for your family


We can also receive remains arriving in South Florida and coordinate the next steps for local funeral, burial, or cremation arrangements. Requirements vary by destination, and our staff will explain the documents and arrangements needed for your family’s circumstances.


Common international destinations requested by South Florida families include: Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Italy, Brazil, Guyana, Honduras, Colombia, Mexico, Egypt, Ghana, Philippines, and Ireland


We can also coordinate other destinations based on local requirements and airline routing.
