Capital District Affordable Cremation Service

"I had never gone through this before so I was anxious when my mom passed about how to go about cremation and whatnot. Jim was immediately helpful in walking me through the process. They were more affordable than anywhere else so I wanted to talk with them first to make sure I wouldn't regret going "cheap" and they were so warm and welcoming that I did not regret it one bit. Jim was very communicative and accessible. One thing I would like to mention is that if your loved one was on Medicaid or had other circumstances that may qualify them for assistance, you could be able to get assistance from the county for this. I did not know this until AFTER I paid and they do NOT reimburse. You must apply for this prior to signing with the funeral home and they pay the funeral home directly. I wanted to share that info in the hopes of someone else not making that same mistake I did. No one tells you these things!"

"My dad passed away early morning on 1/1/22. They were able to pick him up quickly. I called around to several places, CDACS was about $800 cheaper than the lowest quote I got from the others. Financially, this took a huge load off of my shoulders and gave me one less thing to stress about. They were very friendly and helpful on the phone. While my dad was in NY, I live in GA, and they were kind enough to ship his remains to me. I'm grateful they made things easier for me during a hard time. I highly recomment them."

"In a difficult time for my family and I were unable to travel to put my uncle to rest in person, Jim at Capital District Affordable Cremation Services, LLC went above and beyond to assist me over the phone and take care of my family's needs. Once I was able to make the trip to Troy from New York City, he met me in person to give me my uncle's belongings. Capital District Affordable Cremation Services, LLC are reasonably priced and professional. Under these circumstances great customer service goes a long way and my family and I are very appreciative of the great service Jim provided!"
