Are mobile homes or mobile units allowed to operate as funeral establishments?

  1. Yes, for all cases

  2. No, except in emergencies

  3. Only if permanently stationed

  4. Yes, with a special license

The correct answer is: No, except in emergencies

Mobile homes or mobile units are not typically permitted to operate as funeral establishments except in emergencies. This restriction is rooted in the regulations that mandate funeral establishments to maintain specific standards related to health, safety, and professional practices. Funeral operations require adequate facilities for the handling, preparation, and storage of human remains, which may not be fully achievable in a mobile unit. Thus, the use of mobile funeral units is usually only justified during emergency situations, such as natural disasters or other crises, where traditional facilities are unavailable or compromised. In such instances, temporary licenses or allowances may be granted to ensure that the needs of the community and the deceased are appropriately met while still adhering to standards set forth by the regulatory body.
