CALL NOW: 088793 27184What Is a Freezer Box?
A freezer box — also known as a dead body freezer box or mortuary box — is a temperature-controlled preservation unit used to keep the mortal remains of a deceased person in a hygienic, dignified state until the funeral or last rites can take place.
Essentially, it works by maintaining a steady low temperature (typically between 2°C and 8°C) to slow down natural changes. As a result, families get the time they need to make travel plans, gather relatives, complete paperwork, or arrange religious ceremonies without being pressured by the clock.
Our service follows WHO hygiene and sanitation guidelines and local municipal regulations for the handling and preservation of mortal remains.
When Is a Freezer Box Needed?
There are several common situations where a freezer box becomes necessary. Below are the most frequent reasons families request this service:
Waiting for Family
When relatives are travelling from another city or country, the freezer box preserves the body until everyone arrives for the final rites.
Legal or Police Formalities
Similarly, if a death certificate, police clearance, or post-mortem report is pending, the body must be preserved during the paperwork process.
Hospital Discharge of Mortal Remains
In many cases, hospitals require the body to be removed from the mortuary within a limited time. Consequently, a home freezer box allows the family to bring the body home and plan at their own pace.
Religious or Ceremonial Timing
Moreover, certain faiths or customs require the funeral to happen on a specific day, after a prayer period, or once a religious leader is available. A freezer box makes this possible without compromise.
Body Transport Coordination
When the body needs to be transported to another city or state via an ambulance, preservation in a freezer box is needed until transport is arranged.
How Our Freezer Box Service Works
The process is simple, fast, and handled with complete respect. First, just call our helpline — then our team takes over:
Call the Helpline
Share the location (home, hospital, or community hall), time of need, and any special instructions. Our line is open 24 hours.
Freezer Box Dispatched
Next, a sanitised, pre-cooled freezer box is loaded onto a delivery vehicle and sent to your location — typically within 60 minutes.
Professional Setup
After that, our trained staff arrives, positions the unit in the designated area, connects the power supply, and carefully places the body inside with full respect.
Temperature Monitoring
The unit is then set to the correct temperature. In addition, our team verifies that everything is working properly before handing over.
Pickup After Rites
Finally, once the family is ready and the last rites are complete, our team returns to collect the freezer box from the premises.

Important Guidelines for Families
To make sure the freezer box works well, please keep these points in mind:
Power Supply Required
The freezer box needs a continuous power connection (220V) at the delivery location. Therefore, please confirm that a working power socket is available near the placement area.
Ventilated Room
For best results, place the unit in a well-ventilated room or hall. Because the compressor generates some heat, good airflow helps maintain the correct temperature.
Viewing Panel Use
Although families can view the departed through the glass panel, we recommend keeping the lid closed as much as possible. This ensures the inside temperature stays stable.
Duration & Extension
If you need to extend the rental beyond the initial period, simply call our helpline. We will update the booking accordingly — no need to arrange a new unit.
What Affects the Cost?
Naturally, pricing depends on several factors because each situation is different:
- Duration of use — whether the freezer box is needed for 24 hours, 2–3 days, or up to a week.
- Delivery distance — the distance from our facility to the delivery location.
- Time of booking — standard hours versus late-night or holiday requests.
- Additional services — for instance, body transport coordination via ambulance or documentation help.
To get an accurate quote, call 088793 27184 and share the location and expected duration.

- Hospital Transfer Ambulance — for moving patients between facilities.
- Patient Transport Ambulance — for body transportation to another city or cremation ground.
