These were the nicest people!! I had to cremate a friend who had no living relatives. I had the legal documents to assist me but all other funeral homes gave me a difficult time, NOT Green Cremations!! They were very patient especially Marlena!! I can't thank them enough.

Everything went smoothly. Marlaena did a good job of laying out expectations. There was one charge that we were not informed of ahead of time. That is the fee to pick up at home. They apologized for not informing us of that. The fee makes sense because they have to come out right away and they did. They were professional and so very sensitive to our grieving through out the entire process. Everything went smoothly and as expected.

I used Green Cremation for a close family member recently and was impressed with everything about the service. They were always responsive, kind, and helpful. They really made a sad situation so much easier. Also, I love that they're "eco friendly", and also very affordable. The affordable price allowed us to have a wonderful memorial. I highly recommend them, and Marlena was great to deal with.

They were extremely considerate and very respectful. With communication of what was happening and how long it would take. It took a while cause the hospital wasn’t doing their job. But they did everything they could to move along with the process so my mom could come home. I’m very grateful for their service.

The staff at Green Cremation of Texas were very kind, responsive, exceedingly respectful of my family and my loss. The process was done completely online. I only met them when I dropped off my burn and picked it back up later with my mom safely inside. They treated the filled urn with care, dignity, and grace. They helped me with paperwork and understanding the process. They were there to greet me curbside both times. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in the unfortunate position of having lost a loved one.

I have to say losing my mom was the hardest, but Green Cremation made it easy for me to handle what needed to be completed. They kept in contact the whole time. When it was time for pickup, they were kind and very respectful of my mom's ashes.

We were treated with the upmost respect and kindness by Eric Neuhaus and the staff at Green Cremation. What was a most difficult time losing a loved one unexpectedly, Eric made easier by his attention to detail and making sure every question was addressed along the way. Our family is extremely grateful for the level of service we received throughout the process.

From the first phone call until pickup day, Eric was a pleasant and understanding voice during our difficult time. He explained all of the processes and forms that were needed and worked with the Medical Examiner and County officials to finalize the process and care for our loved one.The online process for filling in information and sending payment was near flawless and very convenient for us as we are in San Antonio, making multiple trips to Austin unnecessary, and really streamlined the process and easing the burden on our family.The pickup of the remains was simple and easy. Curbside and safe during these odd times.Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better, more convenient process during this pandemic and difficult time for our family. Thanks to Eric for the wonderful support and outstanding customer service.

My thanks to Eric Neuhaus for making the heartbreaking experience of losing a loved one less difficult. I had called several months earlier with some questions, and Eric was very thorough and responsive. When the time came that his services were needed, he didn't let us down. Everything went smoothly, and even though I called back several times as the situation evolved, he always took the time to speak with me and patiently take care of our needs.In addition to being caring and helping us through this tough time, Green Creations pricing is much more affordable than any other cremation service offers. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone.

During the time when I really wasn't in the mood to meet with people to make last arrangements, it was nice that Green Cremation allowed everything to be taken care of on line. Deciding which services to use was quick and easy.When the death occurred, they were notified and they very quickly arrived to take care of the body.A few days later, they notified me that the remains were ready for me to pick up. It was nice that there was no pressure to get the remains.If I need such services in the future, they will be at the top of my list for who to call.

Losing a family member is so very difficult. Finding how to care for their remains shouldn't be. I searched through every single cremation service available in the Austin Metro area and Green Cremation beats them all hands down. No, really, they do. From the very start, Eric Neuhaus made us feel less stressed, confident, and comfortable with our decision in choosing Green Cremation. Their entire process is SUPER easy and done completely online. Green Cremation's price list is very straightforward, their prices are reasonable and, most importantly, there are no hidden fees or charges. Eric and his team communicate with you throughout the entire process and are always available to answer any questions. I never once felt like I was being a nuisance and they were always very sensitive to our family's pain. I've told my family that Green Cremation is the only place I feel comfortable handling my remains when the Good Lord calls me home.

The staff member that gave me my daughter’s ashes was so very professional, kind, and took her time with the process. She really was amazing; allowing me space to process and grieve while being supportive. She had me sit down,. She sat with me and went over everything, then just allowed me to talk before she placed my daughter’s ashes in the car for me.

Eric and the folks at Green Cremation were exemplary in every single way.Communication was constant and every aspect of the process was undertaken with total dignity and respect.When a loved one passes suddenly in another state, the process can be frustrating to say the least. Eric minimized the confusion and made sure every detail was addressed.The professionalism and care that Eric and staff displayed was more than appreciated, it has helped us tremendously in beginning the grieving process, after the sudden loss of our son.My family and I highly recommend Green Cremation.

When my brother died unexpectedly, I knew he had wanted to be created. However, he lived in Texas and I live in Virginia so I was somewhat at a loss of where to turn. I found Green Cremation online. They made everything so easy. Eric responded quickly to my initial call and help walk me through the process. All the paperwork was completed quickly online, including the paperwork for the desth certificate. There was no pressure or any attempt to "upsell". They told me what options were available and let me choose. They made every step of the process as stress free under the circumstances.

During such a depressing and emotional time in my life, Green Cremation was the least stressful part of laying my Father to rest. I had zero experience with losing an immediate family member and had no clue how the cremation process worked. Eric of Green Cremation was compassionate, professional and patient with the long list of questions I had. His team provided frequent status updates and their online platform for selecting the cremation options, urn type, death certificates, delivery method of ashes etc. is very easy even if you are not tech saavy. Eric even personally delivered my Father's ashes to my Mother's house, took the time to explain in detail all the documents I was receiving and encouraged me to talk through the emotions I was feeling upon receiving the urn. He is truly an Angel.I have already recommended Green Cremation to two friends that unfortunately had family members pass away recently and will continue to recommend their services any chance I get. Thank you so very, very much Green Cremation for all you do.

From Start to finish, GCTx was helpful, available, & in contact at all times. The urns are good pricing and right sizing for being interned in niche.The Death Certificates came in orderly manner. GXCTx contacted SSA & received a timely letter from them regarding changes. Each person I dealt with was very professional, respectful, reassuring, & courteous. Thank you, GCTx

When my mom passed away, they were clear on what they could do to help make this difficult time less stressful. They followed through with all tasks that they said they would do. They handled all the transport details and kept me informed. The delivery of the ashes was smooth and Eric was clear about how the process worked and what he was providing to me. Highly recommend them.

Recently my elderly mother passed away at rehab center. Thru one of our church members’ recommendation we turned to Green Cremation for handling my mother’s cremation. We had such a peace of mind leading by your organization throughout the whole process from picking up my mother’s remain to refrigerated location, selection of the cremation method, and clearly itemized charges and finally delivered the ashes in the urn we chose. Your staffs’ courteous attitude, caring of family’s emotions made us feel that you’re part of the family. We appreciated very much. I’m sure my mother will rest peace in heaven. I would be no hesitation to refer you to our friends for future services.

There aren't enough words to show our appreciation for Eric and Sara and how extraordinarily helpful and forthcoming they were during the entire funerary process. They were absolutely amazing, and my mom and I would have been lost without their guidance and patience when handling the sheer complexity surrounding my late father's death. My family is forever grateful for their services and for the gracious people at Green Cremation. It is without reservation that we highly recommend them for their compassion, professionalism, and knowledge in caring for your loved ones' needs.

Recently our family experienced a death and we contacted Green Cremation Texas, the Pflugerville branch. Eric was our point of contact. He was the consummate professional. Everything, including full costs, were disclosed on the front end. All arrangements were easy to make and they did exactly what they said they would do when they said they would do it. There was not a single burp anywhere in the process.Our family had a lot to deal with and it was great that the cremation, death certificate, obtaining the ashes, etc were all so easy to do via Greens. Eric did a superb job and I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs their services. Their pricing is quite reasonable and their service and caring attitude can't be beat.

Melissa went out of her way to make sure My loved one, my family and myself were able to understand the process and get to say goodbye to my beloved husband. I highly recommend Green Cremation, they really made sure we were taken care of and actually made us feel like we mattered and our feelings did too.

I keep trying to write this review and I’m at a loss for words. Death takes the life out of everything around it, not just your loved one, and feeling “brain dead” while trying to plan how to take care of mom for the last time, it just feels like too much! Melissa has been the most present, patient, and intuitive funeral director I’ve ever met in a way that was organic and full of warmth. She let me be as involved in the process as I wanted to be even taking as much time needed to explain all my questions about the logistics and paperwork. It never felt like I was separated by some door and secrecy. I recommend Green Cremation Texas because they weren’t just a funeral home, they became my tribe. For the first time in my experience with death, I didn’t just get a funeral home that helped facilitate closer, I was given an experience that planted the seeds of healing. Thank you.

I used Green Cremation for a close family member recently and was impressed with everything about the service. They were always responsive, kind, and helpful. They really made a sad situation so much easier. Also, I love that they're "eco friendly", and also very affordable. The affordable price allowed us to have a wonderful memorial. I highly recommend them, and Marlena was great to deal with.

They were extremely considerate and very respectful. With communication of what was happening and how long it would take. It took a while cause the hospital wasn’t doing their job. But they did everything they could to move along with the process so my mom could come home. I’m very grateful for their service.

The staff at Green Cremation of Texas were very kind, responsive, exceedingly respectful of my family and my loss. The process was done completely online. I only met them when I dropped off my burn and picked it back up later with my mom safely inside. They treated the filled urn with care, dignity, and grace. They helped me with paperwork and understanding the process. They were there to greet me curbside both times. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in the unfortunate position of having lost a loved one.

From the first phone call until pickup day, Eric was a pleasant and understanding voice during our difficult time. He explained all of the processes and forms that were needed and worked with the Medical Examiner and County officials to finalize the process and care for our loved one.The online process for filling in information and sending payment was near flawless and very convenient for us as we are in San Antonio, making multiple trips to Austin unnecessary, and really streamlined the process and easing the burden on our family.The pickup of the remains was simple and easy. Curbside and safe during these odd times.Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better, more convenient process during this pandemic and difficult time for our family. Thanks to Eric for the wonderful support and outstanding customer service.

My thanks to Eric Neuhaus for making the heartbreaking experience of losing a loved one less difficult. I had called several months earlier with some questions, and Eric was very thorough and responsive. When the time came that his services were needed, he didn't let us down. Everything went smoothly, and even though I called back several times as the situation evolved, he always took the time to speak with me and patiently take care of our needs.In addition to being caring and helping us through this tough time, Green Creations pricing is much more affordable than any other cremation service offers. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone.

During the time when I really wasn't in the mood to meet with people to make last arrangements, it was nice that Green Cremation allowed everything to be taken care of on line. Deciding which services to use was quick and easy.When the death occurred, they were notified and they very quickly arrived to take care of the body.A few days later, they notified me that the remains were ready for me to pick up. It was nice that there was no pressure to get the remains.If I need such services in the future, they will be at the top of my list for who to call.

Losing a family member is so very difficult. Finding how to care for their remains shouldn't be. I searched through every single cremation service available in the Austin Metro area and Green Cremation beats them all hands down. No, really, they do. From the very start, Eric Neuhaus made us feel less stressed, confident, and comfortable with our decision in choosing Green Cremation. Their entire process is SUPER easy and done completely online. Green Cremation's price list is very straightforward, their prices are reasonable and, most importantly, there are no hidden fees or charges. Eric and his team communicate with you throughout the entire process and are always available to answer any questions. I never once felt like I was being a nuisance and they were always very sensitive to our family's pain. I've told my family that Green Cremation is the only place I feel comfortable handling my remains when the Good Lord calls me home.

The staff member that gave me my daughter’s ashes was so very professional, kind, and took her time with the process. She really was amazing; allowing me space to process and grieve while being supportive. She had me sit down,. She sat with me and went over everything, then just allowed me to talk before she placed my daughter’s ashes in the car for me.

Eric and the folks at Green Cremation were exemplary in every single way.Communication was constant and every aspect of the process was undertaken with total dignity and respect.When a loved one passes suddenly in another state, the process can be frustrating to say the least. Eric minimized the confusion and made sure every detail was addressed.The professionalism and care that Eric and staff displayed was more than appreciated, it has helped us tremendously in beginning the grieving process, after the sudden loss of our son.My family and I highly recommend Green Cremation.

When my brother died unexpectedly, I knew he had wanted to be created. However, he lived in Texas and I live in Virginia so I was somewhat at a loss of where to turn. I found Green Cremation online. They made everything so easy. Eric responded quickly to my initial call and help walk me through the process. All the paperwork was completed quickly online, including the paperwork for the desth certificate. There was no pressure or any attempt to "upsell". They told me what options were available and let me choose. They made every step of the process as stress free under the circumstances.

During such a depressing and emotional time in my life, Green Cremation was the least stressful part of laying my Father to rest. I had zero experience with losing an immediate family member and had no clue how the cremation process worked. Eric of Green Cremation was compassionate, professional and patient with the long list of questions I had. His team provided frequent status updates and their online platform for selecting the cremation options, urn type, death certificates, delivery method of ashes etc. is very easy even if you are not tech saavy. Eric even personally delivered my Father's ashes to my Mother's house, took the time to explain in detail all the documents I was receiving and encouraged me to talk through the emotions I was feeling upon receiving the urn. He is truly an Angel.I have already recommended Green Cremation to two friends that unfortunately had family members pass away recently and will continue to recommend their services any chance I get. Thank you so very, very much Green Cremation for all you do.

When my mom passed away, they were clear on what they could do to help make this difficult time less stressful. They followed through with all tasks that they said they would do. They handled all the transport details and kept me informed. The delivery of the ashes was smooth and Eric was clear about how the process worked and what he was providing to me. Highly recommend them.

Recently my elderly mother passed away at rehab center. Thru one of our church members’ recommendation we turned to Green Cremation for handling my mother’s cremation. We had such a peace of mind leading by your organization throughout the whole process from picking up my mother’s remain to refrigerated location, selection of the cremation method, and clearly itemized charges and finally delivered the ashes in the urn we chose. Your staffs’ courteous attitude, caring of family’s emotions made us feel that you’re part of the family. We appreciated very much. I’m sure my mother will rest peace in heaven. I would be no hesitation to refer you to our friends for future services.

There aren't enough words to show our appreciation for Eric and Sara and how extraordinarily helpful and forthcoming they were during the entire funerary process. They were absolutely amazing, and my mom and I would have been lost without their guidance and patience when handling the sheer complexity surrounding my late father's death. My family is forever grateful for their services and for the gracious people at Green Cremation. It is without reservation that we highly recommend them for their compassion, professionalism, and knowledge in caring for your loved ones' needs.
