Understanding the Benefits of Pine Burial Containers

At Free State Caskets, we offer plain pine burial containers that are not only a budget-friendly option but also an environmentally conscious choice for those considering natural or green burials. Crafted from sturdy and biodegradable unfinished pine, these caskets respect the earth while providing a dignified farewell.

Why Choose a Pine Burial Container?

• Biodegradable: Pine is a natural material that decomposes, allowing the body to return to the earth in a respectful way.
• Affordability: Starting at just $650, our pine caskets are a cost-effective option compared to traditional burial products.
• Sturdy Design: Built with durability in mind, our caskets ensure a safe resting place.
• Simple and Reverent: The simplicity of the design reflects a straightforward approach to burial, valuing the essence of the moment.

Pine Casket Specifications

Our standard casket measures:

• Depth: 14 inches
• Width: 25 inches
• Length: 72-76 inches (custom sizing is also available)

Note that there is no interior lining, which reinforces the natural approach of our pine caskets.

Additional Options and Services

For those who prefer, we offer an oil finish for an additional $50. This finish is recommended if the casket will be stored for any length of time prior to burial, providing extra protection and a beautiful look. If you need a casket quickly, please reach out, and we will do our best to accommodate your timeline.

Pet Caskets and Urns

We also provide plain pine burial urns and pet caskets, which are made to order. Our urns range from $150 to $200, with pet casket pricing available upon inquiry. We believe every family member, including pets, deserves a dignified farewell.
