At Dancy Funeral Home, we understand that when a death occurs — whether at home, out of state, or abroad — families are often faced with unfamiliar logistics and time-sensitive decisions. We’re here to manage those details, so you don’t have to.
From arranging transportation for local services to coordinating the return of a loved one from across the country or around the world, we help families navigate the complexities of funeral logistics with care, clarity, and professionalism.
Whether you need a limousine for the day of the funeral, assistance bringing a loved one home, or support in traveling with cremated remains, we’ll walk with you through every step.
On the day of a service, transportation should be seamless, respectful, and handled with care. At Dancy Funeral Home, we coordinate local transportation for families and guests to ensure everyone arrives safely, on time, and with dignity.
We can assist with:
Limousines for immediate family traveling to and from the funeral home, house of worship, or cemetery
Buses or vans for larger family groups or guests traveling together
Lead vehicles for processions to the cemetery
Escort coordination, if required by local law enforcement or cemetery policy
Special accommodations for mobility challenges or accessibility needs
To help ensure everyone’s safety — whether they travel in procession or on their own — we provide:
Whether you prefer a traditional procession or a more discreet transportation plan, we’ll work with you to arrange services that reflect your preferences and needs.
When someone passes away away from home — whether while traveling, living in another state, or receiving care outside the area — we’re here to help bring them home with dignity.
At Dancy Funeral Home, we regularly work with families who need assistance:
We work closely with funeral homes across the country to ensure your loved one is cared for with respect at every step of the journey. From securing permits and coordinating transportation to planning the local service or memorial, we handle the logistics — so you can focus on your family.
If your loved one passed away in another state and you need them brought home for services, or if you’re planning to have them laid to rest somewhere else, we will walk with you through each step to make the process seamless and worry-free.
When a death occurs overseas — or when a loved one needs to be returned to another country for burial — the process can feel overwhelming. Every country has its own documentation requirements, customs protocols, and timelines. We’re here to handle those details on your behalf.
At Dancy Funeral Home, we work with funeral homes, airlines, consulates, and government agencies around the world to bring loved ones home or return them to their country of origin for services and final disposition.
We assist with:
Repatriating international citizens who pass away in New Jersey
Returning U.S. citizens to New Jersey for burial or memorial services

We understand how important it is to follow both family wishes and international regulations. Our team will walk you through each step, coordinate across time zones and languages, and ensure your loved one is treated with the highest level of care and dignity.
Whether a death occurs during travel, a temporary residence abroad, or in a country far from family, we’ll help you navigate the process with compassion and professionalism.
Cremated remains can be taken home, shipped, or transported across borders — but doing so requires careful planning, proper packaging, and compliance with regulations. We’re here to guide you through the process so you can travel with peace of mind.
In the United States, the United States Postal Service (USPS) is the only legal carrier for mailing cremated remains. They must be:
We can prepare the package and paperwork on your behalf, and guide you on what to expect.
Please note: USPS tracking ends once the package leaves the country, and not all countries accept cremated remains by mail.
For many families, the safest and most reliable method is to carry cremated remains with you while flying:
Every country has its own regulations for receiving cremated remains. Some require advance approval, consulate-issued permits, or translated documents.
Before traveling, we strongly recommend:
We can assist you with international paperwork, translations, and consulate coordination to ensure safe and respectful travel.
