Contact for pricing

Pure Waters is a dedicated, woman-owned aquamation provider in Boulder, offering water cremation, a gentle alternative to flame that returns more ashes, with individual, private and communal options and at-home or clinic pickup. It handles the entire process on its own premises, so your pet never leaves its facility, and it serves pets up to 400 pounds.

One thing to know: Its process is aquamation rather than traditional flame cremation, so it is not the choice if you specifically want flame, and it publishes no prices, so quotes are by phone. The ashes are typically returned in 7 to 10 days rather than immediately.
