Shav Vaahan

शव वाहन

Transport for the deceased, for families who need to move a body to another place for the last rites.

Which vehicle is used depends on the distance and on how long it has been. Within a city or a state, a mortuary ambulance is used — usually carrying a freezer box, to prevent the body deteriorating on the way.

It is a service families need at the worst hour of their lives, and rarely know how to arrange.

Support this seva

Three things that would help, today

A hearse is a vehicle: it needs fuel, servicing and somebody to drive it.

01

Cover running costs

Fuel and maintenance are the whole expense of this service, and they never stop.

02

Drive

If you have a licence and can be reached at odd hours, you can do this seva.

03

Make sure people know the number

Families needing a hearse are having the worst day of their lives and are not researching options.

Nothing here is paid for on this website. Every one of these starts with a phone call, because they are conversations rather than transactions — and because the trust would rather know what you are offering than take a card number.
