Services
Delaware Valley Cremation Center has been dedicated since 1991 to the sensible, flexible and meaningful process of caring for a loved one, and appropriately paying tribute to a life well-lived. We enable consumers to focus on the needs of their family while foregoing many of the expenses associated with customary rituals which they may no longer value.
The goods and services shown on this website are those we can provide to our customers. You may choose only the items you desire. However, any arrangements you select will include a charge for our basic services and overhead. If legal or other requirements mean you must buy items you did not specifically ask for, we will explain the reason in writing on the statement we provide describing the goods and services you selected.
If you are curious about cremation, let Delaware Valley Cremation Center shed some light on the process so that you can make an informed decision. We are the leading cremation provider in the Philadelphia, PA, area since 1991. Cremation uses flame, intense heat, vaporization and mechanical processes to reduce human remains to bone fragments in a granular, powdery state.
Discussing our own mortality is difficult, but lightening some of the future burden of our final affairs from our loved ones makes it well worthwhile. Whenever possible, final disposition and memorialization wishes should be discussed openly and frankly. A death in a family may create problems for survivors that could be alleviated by discussion and pre-planning.
The State Room* offers a unique and comfortable setting for the joyous gathering of fellowship and remembrance in honoring and celebrating a life well lived. There is a timeless, sacred value in the irreplaceable opportunity for family and friends to come together after a loss to pay a fitting tribute, share their grief, and begin their journey of healing.

I was impressed by the care & empathy shown by the efficient staff of the Delaware Valley Cremation Center. They were extremely helpful in explaining their products and services for ushering our loved ones on beyond this life. Thanks especially to Jess for making this an easier process than it could have been!

My dad passed away and we were estranged for sometime before his passing. Del Val was wonderful though the process. They were understanding that I wasn’t sure about some information and were helpful in answering questions. The facility is beautiful. I picked up his remains and I was given an office envelope which I just assumed had information that I needed. Later, when I had opened it, I saw they included prayer cards and bookmarker-like strips that hold seeds to plant in memory of your loved one. I was really touched by these “little” gestures. I am very appreciative of Del Val.

Losing a love one is never easy but Delaware Valley Cremation gives you the peace and mind you need during this difficult time. My mother's death was sudden, Jay and his team help me from start to finish to helped me give my Mothers a beautiful goodbye. They will go above and beyond your exception and care for you deceased love one like it was someone they personally known.I hope I don't need to use them again anytime soon but I know moving forward this is the place I will return to when the time comes to have my love one cared for.

I had my mom's services here. They are excellent, warm, kind, friendly, compassionate and really care about the families. They treat you like family. My brother and I were very pleased with the outcome of my mom's services. I would recommend them to anyone who would need services for their loved one. The catering was also phenomenal, if you would choose to have everything there. We had a great experience. Kudos to Jade and the rest of the staff. Thank you again for your wonderful service, from The Damian/Oechsle family.

The atmosphere at Delaware Valley Creation Center is not like a traditional stuffy funeral home. It is an excellent venue if you want to celebrate your lost loved ones life.
The staff is very professional and both Jay and George made sure that all of our expectations were met and exceeded. Jay even helped me find a bag pipper on short notice to play amazing grace at the funeral.
The venue itself is amazing and clean, it does not have the smell or creaky wooden floors that you associate with an old funeral home.
I highly recommend their services.

We were given the name of Delaware Valley Cremation Center by the hospice where my father-in-law resided before he passed. I found the staff to be very kind, compassionate and professional. The atmosphere has a very warm and comfortable feel. I was also surprised at just how large the Cremation center was and the fact that they offer services as well as the Cremation. I would highly recommend.
