Shipping & Delivery

Navy blue with silver pinstripes and Air Force emblems and insignia on the lid, in 18-gauge steel, sealed and gasketed. Dark blue velvet inside over an adjustable bed. Urn corner posts, silver hardware. Half couch. Made for a military funeral, where the flag is draped over the closed lower half and folded at the graveside. It fits a standard burial vault and is rated to 500 pounds. At $2,595 it is mid-range among our 18-gauge caskets.

The casket is shipped in one of two special cargo compartments under the commercial passenger airplanes (typically American, Delta or United) apart from the other luggage. These two special compartments are where they store bodies and empty caskets. This is how the casket is packaged. First there is a thin layer of Styrofoam, followed by a layer of bubble wrap. Over that are placed large blocks of hard Styrofoam which provide most of the support as well as 5" thick styrofoam caps over both ends. Over that is a double-walled cardboard box and then another double-walled box over that. You can literally beat the box with a baseball bat and not hurt the casket. There is roughly 3-5 inches between the outer box and the inner casket so if the box is ruffled on the outside, the casket will not be scratched or dented 3-5 inches below the box surface. After it gets to the airport the hot-shot courier typically picks up your casket and delivers it directly to the funeral home in his van. We will email you to notify you that the casket has been delivered.

Unbeatable Value

Amazing customer service, and the price was unbeatable for a high-quality casket. We saved 75% compared to what the funeral homes were charging.

Perfect Tribute For Our Air Force Veteran

My Fathers casket was more beautiful in person. He loved being an Air Force veteran and we couldn’t believe we found a casket that suited him. We will definitely use Discount-caskets again if and when needed. Super fast delivery and Discount-caskets delivery company was excellent in helping to unload the casket.

Honoring My Father with the Perfect Casket

Thank you for being so prompt with the delivery of this casket for my father. The casket was beautiful, really loved the emblem on the inside and it had the perfect colors for the Air Force. This was an Air Force funeral and many of the retirees that attended had asked us where we got this perfect casket from. We handed out so many pamphlets at the funeral with the Discount-Caskets logo on it. Everyone was so impressed with the casket.

This casket was top tier!!!

This casket was top tier; it arrived next day after the purchase and well before the funeral. The funeral home had commented that they never had online casket look so good and come as fast as my order did. We did well purchasing from here.
