MIROKU Launches Specialized Funeral Transport Service for Peaceful Farewells

MIROKU's Dedicated Service Addressing Funeral Transportation Needs

In the delicate realm of final farewells, the pressure to make quick decisions can lead to significant regrets. A recent survey revealed that financial concerns are the primary source of remorse for families when organizing funerals. Many individuals find themselves grappling with unexpected expenses, unclear pricing, and insufficient time to make necessary comparisons. These common regret points stem from the tradition of necessitating rapid transportation of the deceased from hospitals to their resting locations.

Typically, this transportation is managed by funeral homes, making the selection process for a funeral service provider a hasty affair. Not only does this create an environment ripe for hurried decisions, but the funeral industry itself is facing personnel shortages in transport services. Recognizing these critical challenges, MIROKU has launched a specialized service called “ゆっくり選べる葬儀便” (Slow Choice Funeral Delivery). This unique offering provides families with ample time to make well-considered decisions regarding their loved one’s farewell.

The service focuses on transporting remains from hospitals to homes or designated resting places, ensuring dignity and respect while maintaining the deceased in a proper condition before the funeral rites. This also allows grieving families to take a necessary pause for reflection and preparation, easing some of the burdens traditionally associated with funeral planning. In recent years, especially in metropolitan areas, there has been a noticeable increase in wait times for cremation, often extending from a few days to over a week. Families are often bewildered as to why they must rush decisions for services planned for further down the line.

MIROKU solves this problem by offering long-term support to bereaved family members. The company ensures that the deceased are kept in appropriate environments while families prepare for their arrangements, thus mitigating the rush. By giving families a chance to carefully consider their options, MIROKU aims to help them avoid regret and instead ensure a meaningful farewell.

As MIROKU grows, it remains committed to re-evaluating and improving the approach to funerary practices. Their vision is to create a landscape where families feel supported and confident in their choices, ultimately fostering a healing process that respects both the deceased and their loved ones. The company’s foundation is rooted in a method established by one of its directors at “Ryuuha no Ki,” located in Takasaki, Gunma Prefecture, which has been providing these essential transport and resting services since 2020.

Established to expand this compassionate approach nationally through a franchise model, MIROKU invites communities across Japan to reconsider the way they view and manage funerary services. By focusing on reliable transport and dignified care of the deceased, the company is leading a much-needed transformation in the industry, allowing families to cherish their goodbye without the burden of rush or regret. In doing so, MIROKU not only addresses immediate logistical needs but also reinforces the importance of thoughtful reflection during one of life’s most challenging moments.
