About Heart of Texas Cremation Austin

A Member of the Cremation Association of North America.

 

We are a Funeral Home  (Texas License #3698 Austin) and Crematory (Texas License #2407) licensed by the Texas Funeral Service Commission. We provide affordable cremation and graveside services. We are not a cremation society which contracts with other funeral homes, we are the funeral home and the crematory. You will only work with our Funeral Directors.

Our primary goal and vision is to provide affordable cremations and burials to avoid adding burden in a particulary stressful time. We want to provide quality, dignity, and affordability for our customers.

We have two locations to assist you (Austin and San Antonio) with your final preparation needs. Both locations have the same great customer service and a price that won't put undue burden on your family in a time of need.

Advantages to working with local friends and neighbors:

*The funeral directors you work with to care for your loved one are located here in Austin.

*We live here and work here.

*We are not just a post office box.

*We do not use a third party crematory.

*We own our crematory.

*When we take a loved one into our care they stay in our care for the entire process.

*You can schedule a time to come see us at our local facility.

DECEPTION WARNING
Please Note: Heart of Texas Cremations and Burial Service is your neighbor and friend in Austin, Texas. There are internet companies located far away from Austin currently advertising in Austin that claim to be Texas-based, but not Austin-based. These internet only companies obtain a PO Box in the Austin area and a local phone number that they place on their website to make you think they are local. We feel that during a time of loss, this is a dishonest practice.
