Private Cremation Rates and Cost
We currently offer private whole horse cremation services, which begin at $1650.
Private cremation, which involves the cremation of a single horse and the return of the ashes to the owner, tends to be more expensive than communal cremation, which involves the cremation of multiple horses at the same time. It’s important to consider all options to ensure that you are honoring your beloved equine companion in the way you are able.
You can contact us 7 days a week to discuss available options and costs with one of our helpful representatives.
The cost of horse cremation can vary depending on a number of factors:
- the weight of your horse, donkey or pony
- the location of the crematory and whether services are performed on-site
- the type of equipment used
- the type of service selected
- transportation method and tools or equipment used for loading and unloading
- distance traveled

Transportation
Owner Transportation
If you prefer to provide your own transport, you are welcome to make an appointment to bring your horse, donkey, or pony directly to one of our facilities in Georgia or North Carolina.
You are also welcome to choose to arrange for euthanasia services on site. We have a private viewing room available if you would like to witness the cremation.
EPONA Transportation
If your horse, donkey or pony passes away or is euthanized at your home, barn, stables, or veterinary clinic, we can arrange transportation. Using our specifically adapted horse trailer equipped with rescue sleds, our experienced and caring staff will transport your horse individually to our facility.
The weight of your horse, donkey or pony, and your distance from our facility are all factors to take into account to determine the cost of our whole horse cremation services. You can contact us 7 days a week to discuss available options and cost with one of our helpful staff.

Care after the death of a Horse
Horse owners who want to offer their faithful friend a dignified end, will often ask themselves
“what should I do when my horse dies?”
Our comprehensive services offer you the necessary resources to plan ahead and cope with the death of your loyal companion and lay them to rest with respect. Our team will guide you through the options so that when the time comes, you will be ready and feel prepared.
EPONA provides horse cremation services throughout the Southeast US including North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Virginia, and Tennessee. Many crematories are not equipped to deal with animals as large as horses, so we provide whole horse cremation services throughout the region.
We can schedule a cremation transportation for you from any of those regions, however, if you live outside of these areas, please contact us. Our caring staff at EPONA understands your pain and will do whatever we can to help you during this emotional time.
