Why Working With a Specialized Mortuary Lift Company Matters
In the funeral and medical industries, equipment failure is not an option. Body transport lifts, also called cadaver lifts or mortuary lifts, are mission-critical for facilities handling human remains. From funeral homes to forensic labs, safe body handling depends on specialized, heavy-duty equipment designed for dignity, safety, and durability.
That’s why choosing the right mortuary lift company is just as important as choosing the lift itself.
What Is a Mortuary Lift?
A mortuary lift is a battery-powered or manual device used to raise, lower, and transfer human remains in and out of mortuary coolers, autopsy tables, or transport vehicles. These lifts eliminate the need for manual lifting and reduce injury risks for staff.
Common types of mortuary lifts:
-
✅ Covered Cadaver Lifts
-
✅ Hydraulic Scissor Lifts
-
✅ Roll-In Cooler Compatible Lifts
-
✅ Bariatric Body Lifts
-
✅ Telescoping Mortuary Lifts
-
✅ Electric Motorized Cadaver Lifts
