Ilfov town east of Bucharest, adjacent to Sector 2–3. Very short routes to the Pantelimon hospital axis and eastern Bucharest cemeteries.
We cover the town of Pantelimon in full — Centru, zona lac and DN2 — with collection, paperwork, coffin, service, transport and, on request, cremation.
It makes no difference whether you are in Centru or at the edge of the locality: the team comes to the address. The areas we know:
Pantelimon has 5 cemeteries with known names: Cernica 2, Mormântul lui Gala Galaction, Ortodox „Mănăstirea Cernica” and Cimitir Pantelimon 2.

For emergencies, people in Pantelimon go to Spitalul Clinic de Urgență Sfântul Pantelimon (8.5 km away); if the death happens there, we take care of the collection and the paperwork. At a death at home, the family doctor or the on-call doctor certifies it; the team sets off from Bucharest and usually reaches Pantelimon within 35–50 min (14.2 km).
The paperwork is done at Primăria Orașului Pantelimon, Strada Sfântul Gheorghe 32: we bring the medical death certificate and the deceased's ID and collect the death certificate, usually the same day.
The priest at Biserica „Sfântul Lazăr” or at the family's parish holds the service; we bring the coffin and the flowers and organise the procession to the cemetery.
Burial takes place at Cernica 2 or, if the family chooses cremation, at Vitan-Bârzești (16.9 km, about 20 min).
Base cost: from 4,900 RON. We confirm the cemetery fees in Pantelimon with the town hall and list them separately, so you know everything upfront; the funeral allowance (ajutorul de înmormântare) can be signed over to us.
Pantelimon has no emergency hospital of its own; the nearest emergency hospitals are Spitalul Clinic de Urgență Sfântul Pantelimon (8.5 km, ~14 min by car), Spitalul Clinic Județean de Urgență Ilfov (9.7 km, ~16 min by car) and Spitalul Fundeni (11.8 km, ~19 min by car). If the death occurs there, we collect from the hospital morgue and continue the paperwork at that sector's civil-status office.
