Cremation has become more and more in demand in recent years, and Arlington Cemetery offers a variety of options for memorialization and final resting places for your loved ones. Cremation urns may be placed above ground in a Private Family Estate within designated gardens, or families may choose from our traditional in-ground burial options.
Families who need to make immediate burial arrangements should begin by completing our intake form. After submitting the form, a customer service representative will be in contact with you. Families may also email us at arlingtonelmlawn@troostcems.com or call us at (630) 833-9696.
We kindly offer to accept a Life Insurance Policy assignment as payment for at-need burial arrangements (interment, entombment, or inurnment and memorial) and additional pre-need arrangements selected at this time of need. 4 to 5 days are required to process an assignment in order to secure approval from the insurance company prior to any scheduled burial service. A processing fee is charged in order to be able to offer this service to our families.
Cremation Estates are the perfect choice for those who would choose cremation but would still like to remain together with their family. Cremation Estates are similar to the family estates but instead of a private mausoleum, a private columbarium is used. We have options that could accommodate as few as two or custom designs that could be as large as a family would choose to build.
Much like with a casket burial, below-ground cremation burials are available in nearly all sections of our park. Cremation burials allow for a single grave space to accommodate as many as two loved ones and in some circumstances three.
