Frequently Asked Questions — Body & Casket Lifts
What is a body and casket lift?
A body and casket lift is a mechanical or hydraulic lifting system designed to raise, lower, and transfer remains and caskets safely in funeral homes, morgues, and mortuary facilities. They reduce staff injury risk during transfers between coolers, prep tables, viewing rooms, and removal vehicles.
What is the difference between a body lift and a casket lift?
A body lift is designed for transferring unencased remains — typically between a cooler, prep table, or cot. A casket lift is designed for raising and lowering a casketed body — typically in a chapel, viewing room, or hearse loading area. Many mortuary lift systems serve both functions.
