What Is a Mobile Funeral Home and How Does It Work?
When people hear "mobile funeral home" for the first time, they usually picture something improvised. Something less than. That is the opposite of what Into Our Kare is.
Into Our Kare is a fully licensed funeral establishment operating under a North Carolina establishment license. The mobile part is not a workaround or a budget option. It is the whole design. Here is how it actually works.
What a Mobile Funeral Home Is
A mobile funeral home is a licensed funeral operation that brings professional services to the family rather than requiring the family to come to a building. Into Our Kare operates out of a custom-built vehicle equipped for dignified, professional funeral service delivery anywhere in North Carolina.
The licensing is the same as any brick-and-mortar funeral home. The funeral director is the same: Clay Bruggeman, a licensed funeral director and embalmer with over 15 years of professional death care experience, including two combat tours as a mortuary affairs specialist in the US Army. The difference is where the service happens.
How the Process Works
When a Death Occurs
You call us. We are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week at 704-473-3317. We take your loved one into our care and begin the legal process: filing the death certificate, obtaining the required authorizations, and coordinating next steps with your family.
Arrangement Conference
We meet with your family, at your home or by phone, to understand what you want. What kind of service, if any. What location. What specific details matter. We document your preferences and provide a clear, itemized price breakdown.
The Service
If your family is holding a service, we come to you. We arrive at your chosen location, set up, and conduct the service. Whether that is a living room gathering of twelve people or an outdoor memorial at a park with two hundred, we are equipped for it.
Final Disposition
For cremation families, remains are returned to you after the process is complete. For green burial families, we coordinate with the cemetery. For traditional burial families, we coordinate with your chosen cemetery.
Why Families Choose a Mobile Funeral Home
The most common reason we hear: families did not want to be in a funeral home. The fluorescent lights, the stranger's chairs, the forced formality of a place designed for death but not designed for their family specifically.
The second most common reason is convenience for elderly family members who cannot easily travel. The service comes to them.
The third is personalization. When your living room or your backyard is the venue, the service looks like your family. Not like every other family that has used that chapel.
Who Into Our Kare Serves
We serve families throughout Gaston County, Cleveland County, and Lincoln County, NC, including Cherryville, Kings Mountain, Gastonia, Shelby, Lincolnton, Bessemer City, Dallas, Belmont, and surrounding communities. Clay is a Cherryville native. This is his community.
Call us at 704-473-3317 any time to learn more or to begin arrangements.
