Economy Ashes Courier USA to UK
SpeedLink Repatriation – The Leading Economy USA to UK Ashes Courier Service
When a loved one’s ashes need to be sent from the United States back to the United Kingdom, families and funeral homes often discover that ordinary courier networks will not handle cremated remains. Airlines impose strict documentation rules, and customs procedures can feel overwhelming. Without specialist help, delays, storage charges, or refusals are common.
That’s why so many people choose SpeedLink Repatriation’s Economy USA to UK Ashes Courier service — a trusted and proven solution that is simple, cost‑effective, and handled with the utmost care.
Starting the Journey with USPS
In the United States, the first step is to send the ashes securely to SpeedLink’s New York hub via the United States Postal Service (USPS). USPS is one of the only approved networks for shipping cremated remains within the USA, and they even provide free Cremated Remains Shipping Kits that meet all their packaging and labelling requirements.
Using these kits, families or funeral homes can safely and legally send ashes directly to our New York service centre. Once we receive the package, SpeedLink takes over completely, managing every aspect of the international transport process from that point forward.

Routing Through Our New York Hub
At our New York service centre, our experienced team inspects the shipment, ensures all paperwork is complete, and prepares the ashes for export. We handle all airline requirements, customs declarations, and compliance with UK import rules, so families never have to deal with complicated procedures themselves.
Shipments are then consolidated on regular USA to UK Ashes Courier services every 6 to 8 weeks, ensuring a predictable schedule and helping keep costs as low as possible.
The Simplest and Most Cost‑Effective Solution
Attempting to send ashes internationally without specialist support often leads to unnecessary stress, unexpected costs, and long delays. Airlines will not release ashes to private individuals, and customs officials will not clear shipments that lack the correct certificates.
