    The remove metals during the cremation process and usually contact with a metal recycling company. You can imagine if they left metals intact it would make it difficult to put them in the pre-sized containers. Standard procedure, as I understand it. You could have asked for them returned with the cremains, but most people don’t want them, so I don’t think it’s common to prompt people about it.

    I imagine you meant the procedures were expensive, not the metal itself.
