Abstract: A collapsible cremation casket is formed of cardboard and has the appearance of a typical wood or plastic casket. The casket is assembled by folding along pre-scored lines to form a two-piece domed lid having a plurality of slots on the bottom and a set of slots in the back edge. The slots engage a plurality of tabs extending upward from the top of the back wall of the tray. Tabs within the slots on the back wall of the lid and the slope of the back wall of the tray provide support for the lid to stand in an upright position. When the tray is covered with the lid, the tabs engage the slots in the bottom wall of the lid, thereby securely holding the lid in place. During a ceremony, one lid section may be closed position and the second lid section is upright, thereby giving the appearance of a standard two-part casket lid.
