Frequently Asked Questions

It is our mission to make the death care process as straightforward as possible.

Can I buy a Precompose human composting plan if I live in a state where human composting isn’t legal yet?

Yes, you can join Precompose for your future human composting from anywhere in the U.S.

Transport to Recompose will need to be arranged and paid for, most likely with a local funeral home, if you do not live within 30 miles of a future Recompose location. We are available to help you coordinate transportation and answer any questions. If you live outside of the U.S., please contact us at precompose@recompose.life and we will be in touch to help you plan.

Land Acknowledgement

We honor with gratitude the Duwamish People past and present, the land itself, and the Duwamish Tribe. Colonization is an active, persistent process. Indigenous communities continue to be resilient in protecting their ecological and cultural lifeways and deathways despite ongoing oppression.
