About
A disposition authorization is the document where you state your preference as to whether you would like to be buried or cremated.
Although a disposition authorization may seem like a simple document, this is one of the documents that families need the most because it avoids family disputes. Can you imagine how challenging it would be for your family to make the decision of whether you should be buried or cremated if your wishes were not known?

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
In case you missed anything and had some more questions.
What is a Disposition Authorization?
It’s a document that lets you state whether you want to be buried, cremated, or composted (organic reduction) after you die. Without one, your family has to make that call—and that can lead to disagreements.
What does it mean to be composted after you die?
In May 2019, Washington State became the first state to allow human composting (a.k.a. organic reduction) as an alternative to burial or cremation. If you're interested in this option, you can direct it in your Disposition Authorization.
Why does a disposition authorization matter if my family already knows what I want?
Because verbal wishes aren’t legally binding, and families don’t always agree. A signed document removes any ambiguity and prevents disputes during an already difficult time.
Can I name someone to carry out my disposition wishes?
Yes. In your Disposition Authorization, you can designate a specific person to be responsible for making sure your wishes are followed.
Can I change my disposition authorization later?
Yes. If you change your mind about burial, cremation, or composting, you can sign a new Disposition Authorization at any time.
