Horse cremation with
ashes you can trust

A large-animal retort, a documented chain of custody, and ashes returned with a certificate — or communal cremation for owners who don't need remains back.

The two options

Private or communal — the honest difference

Private cremation means your horse enters the retort alone. The ashes returned to you — typically within 7 to 14 days, with a cremation certificate — are your horse's and no one else's. Owners choose private when they want to keep, scatter, or bury the remains, or place them in an urn.

Communal cremation means several animals are cremated together and ashes are not returned. It costs meaningfully less. There is nothing wrong with choosing it; many owners simply want their horse handled with dignity and don't need remains back.

If you're weighing the decision on cost, our Texas horse cremation cost guide breaks down what owners across the state typically pay and why weight drives the price.

What the process looks like

One call to (817) 668-3935 covers everything: winch-truck pickup from your property or your vet's clinic, transport, cremation in a retort sized for equines — miniature ponies through draft horses — and return of ashes if you chose private. You never deal with a second company or a second invoice.

Memorial options

Urns sized for equine ashes, tail-hair keepsakes clipped before cremation, and paw-print-style resin castings of the hoof are available on request. Mention them when you call; hair keepsakes must be arranged before pickup.

FAQ

Common questions

How long until I get the ashes back?
Private cremation ashes are typically returned within 7 to 14 days, with a cremation certificate. We call you when they are ready and arrange return or pickup.
How much does horse cremation cost?
Communal cremation costs less than private because the retort processes several animals together. Private cremation is priced by the horse's weight. Call (817) 668-3935 for an exact quote — and see our cost guide for what Texas owners typically pay.
Can you cremate ponies, mules, and donkeys?
Yes. The retort is sized for equines of every size, from miniature ponies to draft horses. Ponies, mules, donkeys, and miniature horses are all handled with the same process and paperwork.
Is horse cremation legal in Texas?
Yes. Horse cremation is legal in Texas and requires no permit from the state or Parker County. It requires a large-animal retort — a cremation chamber built for equines — which very few facilities in North Texas operate.
Do you pick the horse up, or do I bring it to you?
We pick up. Removal and transport are part of the service — our winch-equipped truck retrieves the horse from your property or your vet's clinic anywhere in Parker County, 24/7.
What is the difference between private and communal cremation?
Private: your horse is cremated alone and every ash returned to you is your horse's. Communal: several animals are cremated together and ashes are not returned. The choice usually comes down to whether you want remains to keep, scatter, or bury.
