Green Cremation, Austin did an amazing job during a very difficult time for our family. Marlaena was extremely professional and empathetic. This was the first time our family had to make decisions in regards to a loved one’s death and Marlaena was incredibly supportive and knowledgeable.

Green Cremation made the difficult process of arranging my sister’s cremation as seamless as possible. Marleana is truly exceptional. She explained everything well and kept us updated throughout. Marleana’s compassion, kindness, and patience during our time of loss made a difficult time a little easier. We will always be grateful for the respectful service provided by Green Cremation.

Marlena was very professional. However, I got asked if I wanted to see my loved one one last time I answered yes of course only to find out the cost was 1895.00 for 15 minutes. Hit me like a slap in the face. Im grieving and all they care about is money… But thats how it is. I only gave the 3 stars because Marlena was very professional like I said.

I wish I could give Marlaena and Green Cremation a million stars. She made a terrible life situation more easily navigable. From start to finish, the process was explained. The ability to conduct the bulk of the process online but always have her available to answer questions via text or on the phone was so comforting. The person who picked up our loved one was so gentle and loving with both the family members and our loved one. Unfortunately in my life I've had to use a number of funeral and cremation services. This by far was the best, easiest, and affordable as well. Green Cremation exceeded our family's expectations and honored our loved one. Thank you again for everything.

Response from the ownerThank you so much for both your kind words and allowing us to be a part of your journey. You are always welcome to reach out if there is anything we can assist with.

We are so grateful for the kind and sensitive services we received when Green Cremation assisted us with the awful experience of losing our son. Marlena and her team are truly meant to be doing what they do. They guided us through this terrible time as beautifully as anyone could and we highly recommend them especially to those like us out of town.

Marlaena was absolutely fantastic. She went out of her way and pulled some strings to bring my momma home as fast as possible and I will never forget her kindness. After we initially decided I’d have to look elsewhere, somewhere closer, and after I’d already contacted other options- she reached out to me and made it happen faster (and cheaper!) than even the closest places. Absolutely phenomenal service. I will never forget her name. Thank you. Marlaena!

Green Cremation Texas was very helpful and pleasant to work with from start to finish. I was present for the pickup of my loved one and conversed with the office multiple times throughout the process. I could not have asked for better care, assistance, and/or guidance during such a time as this. Thank you Green Cremation Texas!

★★★★☆

Overall helpful and good people. Marlaena is very patient and professional, we were comfortable leaving our grandmother in their care. I have recommended them to others and I would do so.My one issue has been with the Death Certificates. We paid for multiple copies, and through lots of run around, we are having to take care of that on our own, with the State, /again/. I need the business to offer pick up for Death Certificates. I would have paid a fee to do so. I understand that might be a challenge for liability reasons, but it's got to be better than us having to run around months after our Grandmother's death to still get certificates we already paid for, because we didn't receive the first set, and because we didn't request them originally, have to start this process all over again.

Response from the ownerElvira, we thank you for your feedback and honesty. We are certainly taking this into consideration so that this does not become the case again. I am so sorry that we fell short in regards to the death certificates. We appreciate the opportunity to be here for your Grandmother's services, and are here if you may ever need us.

Elvira R.

★★★★☆

We unfortunately had to employ their services in Oct 2021 when our son passed unexpectedly. We made arrangements to have him cremated. They told us the price, and when they thought they would cremate him. So we planned a celebration of life ceremony and burial for several days after that, just to leave time for shipping his remains back to Pennsylvania. We did not realize that we had to pay an additional fee to have his cremation expedited, to get him there on time. The additional fees move your loved one into the schedule. Without it, they will remain in storage until such a time that all the expedited folks are completed. It was not explained to us well at the time. I would have paid the $400 fee up front if I had realized that it would be an issue. Unfortunately, it wasn’t explained like that. I’m sure it wasn’t intentional. And because of our emotional state, we didn’t fully comprehend the way it was explained to us. Overall, they did a nice job. But this business practice of charging to jump the line does not seem fair to others who cannot afford to pay it. They should just charge everyone a little more upfront, and take people in the order they arrive. That is a much better business model.

I recommend Green Cremation Texas and the water cremation process.Marlaena is calm, kind, and informative, staying in frequent communication with me throughout the process. Her business partners provided the same level of service with equivalent kindness and compassion. I am impressed with the business model.We were able to spend time with our loved one in a private and comfortable setting which was extremely important for me. Our requests were accommodated without question where possible. If they were not possible, we received an honest and appropriate explanation as well as alternative solutions.

Recently our family experienced a death and we contacted Green Cremation Texas, the Pflugerville branch. Eric was our point of contact. He was the consummate professional. Everything, including full costs, were disclosed on the front end. All arrangements were easy to make and they did exactly what they said they would do when they said they would do it. There was not a single burp anywhere in the process.Our family had a lot to deal with and it was great that the cremation, death certificate, obtaining the ashes, etc were all so easy to do via Greens. Eric did a superb job and I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs their services. Their pricing is quite reasonable and their service and caring attitude can't be beat.

I keep trying to write this review and I’m at a loss for words. Death takes the life out of everything around it, not just your loved one, and feeling “brain dead” while trying to plan how to take care of mom for the last time, it just feels like too much! Melissa has been the most present, patient, and intuitive funeral director I’ve ever met in a way that was organic and full of warmth. She let me be as involved in the process as I wanted to be even taking as much time needed to explain all my questions about the logistics and paperwork. It never felt like I was separated by some door and secrecy. I recommend Green Cremation Texas because they weren’t just a funeral home, they became my tribe. For the first time in my experience with death, I didn’t just get a funeral home that helped facilitate closer, I was given an experience that planted the seeds of healing. Thank you.

Response from the ownerThank you, Nani! We know that it is difficult to write a review of this kind. We really appreciate the fact that you did. We are certain that reviews like this will help others as well.

Green Cremation Texas helped us through a very difficult time. Specifically Melissa. She was there from start to finish throughout the whole process.

My daughter died VERY unexpectedly at 24 years old. So there i was trying to figure out what the heck just happened and the medical examiner wants to know if I've picked a funeral home yet. All i knew was that my daughter loved the environment so i started with Google and it led me to Melissa. I cannot stress enough how WONDERFUL this woman is. When i called her all my thoughts were a mess inside my head. I cried and rambled on about my daughter and about what i thought she would like and Melissa LISTENED to me. She then helped me with what i wanted to do for my daughter. She wasn't fazed at all when i wanted to change something, she just made it happen. Melissa always answered any questions i had either by texting me back or emailing me. I'm so glad i found Melissa and her services.

Melissa helped our family when we were in need. A funeral home that my extended family had chosen was overcharging and my family didn’t have that kind of money.

My family will be using her services from now on. Thank you, Melissa!!
