Hope someone can answer this question for me, it has been on my mind for the past several days.

Urns are small and be made in mass quantity.
Fairly inexpensive to make.
Purchased prior to death.
Stored with very little space in a warehouse.
Shipped overnight by UPS or Fedex if need be.

A casket on the other hand is a different story it is much bigger and requires a different shipper. How do you get an Oriole casket out to someone in California that passed away.

Does the deceased purchase prior to death and store the casket ?
If so where do the store it.

Does the distributor or funeral home on the west coast stock pile one of every major league team or precious moments design(That would be expensive)?

Do they only sell Reds and Indians caskets in Ohio, Cubs and White Sox in Illinois, etc.... Therefore the supplier only has to purchase a few caskets for stock ?

They can't wait until the person passes away and ship a casket across the nation, it probably wouldn't make it in time for the showing.

Anybody have any ideas or insight as to how these caskets will be distributed once orfered !
