On-Site Crematory
Our Crematory is operated by our knowledgeable and licensed professionals. We strictly adhere to a Cremation Code of Ethics and are members of CANA (Cremation Association of America), which provides advanced staff training. Because our crematory is located within our Hartwell funeral home facility your loved one will never be turned over to the care of a crematory miles away, where they will be attended to by people you've never even met.
Strickland Funeral Home & Cremation Service's state-of-the-art equipment is immaculately maintained and environmentally safe. We are proud to be Northeast Georgia's oldest crematory. While many funeral homes may transport your loved one to their cremation provider; We offer a professional, on-site crematory, giving you the peace of mind of your loved one never leaving our facilities.
All Crematories are Not the Same
When making the decision to cremate, it's important to recognize that there are some very important things to consider when selecting the crematory you will entrust with the care of your loved one.
First, will the crematory provide truly personal, and prompt, care?
Here at Strickland Funeral Home & Cremation Service we only serve one family at a time. This means your loved one is taken care of by us from the very moment we are entrusted to escort their body to the funeral home, until we meet with you to turn over their cremated remains to your family.
Second, Doesn't Your Family Deserve a Higher Level of Service?
We believe so. That's why we're committed to giving you and your loved one the kind of personal, respectful attention we provide for members of our own family. Since our crematory is located in our funeral home, your family can comfortably choose to have a private viewing prior to the cremation.
Third, Convenient Arrangements with your family in mind.
We have two locations to better serve your family during a difficult time. Although our crematory is in our funeral home in Hartwell, you can choose to make cremation arrangements with our Hartwell Chapel or our Lavonia Chapel, whichever is most convenient for your family.
