Tell us the neighbourhood (Pipera, Dristor, Rahova, Militari…): we point you to the right sector. Examples:
Embalming temporarily preserves the body for a longer wake, long transport or repatriation. It is done by DSP-licensed staff in a dedicated room, under Law 102/2014.
It is mandatory for an open-casket viewing at a chapel, for transport to burial in another town at least 30 km away, and for repatriation. With the wake at home or a closed casket it is the family's choice. Details: embalming.
Call 0739 592 835: a colleague listens, confirms sector and neighbourhood, then estimates collection. You keep the same contact until the end — no hand-offs between operators.
We explain from the first call whether embalming is necessary in your case: it is mandatory for an open-casket viewing at a chapel, for transport to burial in another town at least 30 km away, and for repatriation; with the wake at home or a closed casket it is the family's choice.
