Compassionate Low-Cost Cremation in Reno, Nevada

Losing someone dear is heavy enough without the cost of a funeral pressing in alongside the grief. For families in Reno and across northern Nevada, United Tissue Network offers cremation at no cost through whole-body donation, a compassionate choice that carries both relief and meaning.

Families who choose UTN save an average of $1,400, and as much as $2,000 to $7,000 next to a traditional funeral. Everything, from transportation to cremation to the return of ashes, is covered.
