Cremation in Wyoming

Wyoming has a high cremation rate but limited providers due to its small population. Cheyenne, Casper, and Laramie have the most options, while rural areas may have only one nearby provider.

Wyoming Cremation Laws

Wyoming has no mandatory waiting period before cremation. The state allows families to handle cremation arrangements without a funeral director, providing maximum flexibility.

I had to say goodbye to my girl. Due to how suddenly it happened I didn't even think of everything I would want. I especially was sad about not asking for a nose stamp. However once I recieved my girl there it was. Her little nose stamp with a paw print. I don't have words to express how much I appreciate and grateful I am. It maybe small but it had been something I had regretted. You helped me keep one more precious memory of my girl alive. Thank you for caring for her.

I picked up my bunny, Roger today and I cried happy tears. Roger was taken from me quite brutally and I loved him so much. He was the absolute best fur baby. When they gave me Rogers cremains back, I felt such a weight taken off of me about Roger. They went above and beyond. They did his fur jars and embellished them beautifully. They did his paw prints the same way. They gave me wildflower seeds in his memory, bundled his ashes in beautiful green tissue paper and his death certificate is on this stunning pearlescent paper. No, what happened to him does not make anything better, but the way they treated my little guy with such compassion, really helped me today. Thank you!
