Dead Body Transportation & Shav Vahan in Delhi NCR

Local and outstation transport for the deceased

Antim Swarg Yatra coordinates dead body transportation, also called shav vahan or hearse service, from homes, hospitals and mortuaries in Delhi NCR. Call 08750858484 with the pickup address and destination to check the available vehicle and route.

Choose the arrangement for the journey

• Local transfer: a journey to a home, mortuary or cremation ground. Share the exact pickup and drop-off locations.
• Outstation road transfer: confirm the destination, expected stops, attendant arrangements and any preservation requirements.
• Air transfer: requires a separate cargo arrangement. See domestic air transport or international transportation.

If relatives will travel with the deceased, ask about permitted seating before booking. Do not assume every vehicle has the same capacity or equipment.

How transport charges are calculated

Ask whether your quote is a local trip price or distance-based. For an outstation journey, confirm whether the charge covers one-way or return kilometres, any minimum distance, tolls, parking, waiting time, night travel and attendant assistance. Equipment and preservation arrangements may be priced separately.

Confirm the vehicle type, agreed route, included services and total before dispatch. Our cost guide explains the other items that may form part of a funeral quote.

Information needed to arrange pickup

1. The pickup and destination addresses, with the hospital or mortuary department where applicable.
2. A family contact at each end and details of any relatives who need to travel.
3. The release status and documents already supplied by the hospital or relevant authority.
4. Any timing constraints, access restrictions, stops or onward cremation arrangements.

Paperwork varies with the circumstances and route. Confirm release requirements with the hospital or relevant authority before moving the deceased. See our transport document guide for questions to check, including airline-specific information.

If the journey cannot start immediately

Ask about freezer box rental and the appropriate arrangements while paperwork or family travel is being completed. For the destination, we can also discuss cremation assistance. The helpline is available 24 hours; dispatch and arrival estimates are confirmed for each booking.
