There are three types of pet cremation: communal, individual, and private. In a communal cremation, multiple animals are cremated together, and the ashes are not returned to the owners. The cost of communal cremation is generally between $30 and $70. An individual cremation involves separating the animals during the cremation process, and the ashes can be returned to the owners. The average cost of individual cremation is $50-$150. A private cremation ensures that the pet is cremated alone, with no possibility of ash mixing, and the cost ranges from $175 to $250.
