Judgment Proof I understand that, but there is no preservation of a crushed casket, hence the primary reason for a vault AKA ‘durable outer container’. Keep in mind also that not all burial vaults are created equal, as some do not have a seal to keep water out while others do.

You are only partially correct. The purpose of the vault is to keep a coffin from rising out of the ground during floods. It's also a major money maker for funeral homes. They promote it as a way to preserve loved ones.

My father worked at Cemeteries most of his life and told me stories as a kid. The one that always scared me the most is of how when the families of the diseased wanted to disinter their loved ones to move for what ever reason, the seals on the burial vaults would not seal properly causing the casket to float inside the vault and the casket be under water. My father was not kidding and said sometimes the vault was buried a few years and seen them flooded. He also seen them in the ground for decades and was dry. That is why I will be cremated and not bobbing around in a vault with insects.

@rayherbst66553 жыл бұрын
In some cemeteries, the water table is higher than the vault, and it is critical to have a non-water-tight vault and casket so that the casket can be lowered to the bottom. Additionally, concrete floats. The cemetery I paid 23 years ago for 2 plots has that type of problem. I just know that my remains will be in water at certain times of the year.

That purpose is defeated if the vault isn’t sealed correctly.

It's actually just a landscaping issue. When the casket breaks down after being placed in the ground, you end up with a low spot I er the grave. Cemeteries don't want that.

What a colossal waste of money. I live in the country and have approval for having a green funeral. Essentially, it involves having a plot of ground (1/4 acre) surveyed out, registered with with county as a cemetery. At the time of death, wherever it occures, I am wrapped in a cotton shroud and buried in a five foot hole and buried. No embalming, no casket. Has to be done within 72 hrs. Can be extended if properly refrigerated and longer if frozen.

I have seen that done at the request of the family the person being buried was a long time member of our car club,and a commercial builder of some custom cars(He did the body on my truck),and in the procession were quite a few customs and Hotrods,the "burn outs" were done carefully-not insane displays,and were requested by the family,it was a way of offering a fond farewell to a friend,the funeral home people rather liked it as well,it was nor disrespect,but quite the opposite.

how about burying them standing up?? in a tube casket, round and lower them in a round hole in the ground with a crane. a well driller can drill the holes in the ground, plant more people in less space !! and deeper too! one on top of another !! how about an hdtv headstone? I have a key and when I go to the headstone, I put my key in and turn it, and a video come on of the deceased, now I can hear and see the person when they were alive!! and I know what they have to say for themselves !
