"These trays are workhorses. The 18-gauge steel doesn't flex like our old trays, and the rolled edges make a huge difference in handling. A truly high-quality, American-made product." – Chief Deputy Coroner, Franklin County, OH

"We ordered a dozen of the 23-inch trays for our new walk-in cooler, and they fit our racks perfectly. They are incredibly easy to clean, which has saved our staff a significant amount of time during prep." – Elizabeth R., Funeral Director

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is the benefit of 18-gauge stainless steel? 18-gauge steel offers an excellent combination of strength and weight. It is thick enough to resist dents and bending under heavy loads (up to 300 lbs) while still being manageable for staff to handle. It also provides superior resistance to rust and corrosion.

2. Why are the rolled edges important? The rolled edges serve two critical functions: they dramatically increase the structural rigidity of the tray to prevent flexing, and they create a smooth, safe edge that won't tear shrouds or gloves and is easy to grip.

3. Can I order a tray in a different size or a heavier gauge? Absolutely. We are the manufacturer, so we can build custom trays to your exact specifications. Whether you need a wider tray for bariatric cases or a different length, contact us with your requirements for a custom quote.

4. How do I properly clean and sanitize this mortuary tray? The stainless steel surface is non-porous and can be safely cleaned with most mortuary-grade disinfectants, soaps, and detergents. Its smooth finish ensures there are no crevices for bacteria to hide, allowing for thorough and easy sanitation.

5. Return Policy (Non-Cooler Items Only)

This return policy applies ONLY to items that are not coolers or custom-built equipment.

• 5.1. Responsibility for Shipping Costs: For all eligible returns, the customer is solely responsible for all shipping costs. This includes the cost of the original shipment from our facility to you (even if a "free shipping" promotion was applied) and the cost of the return shipment back to our facility. These costs are non-refundable and will be deducted from any refund issued.

• 5.2. Eligibility: American Mortuary Coolers offers a 30-day money-back guarantee on eligible items. To qualify, the item(s) must NOT have been USED or OPENED, and must be in "like-new," resalable condition in the original packaging when returned to our facility.

• 5.3. Return Process: To return an item, you must first contact our support team at 1-888-792-9315 to receive a return authorization code (RA). Returns sent without an RA code will not be accepted.

• 5.4. Refund Calculation: All shipping costs for the returned item(s) are the sole responsibility of the buyer. Once the item is received and inspected for damages, we will calculate the refund. The refund amount is the original purchase price, LESS the following:

  • The actual shipping cost we incurred to send the item to you (this applies even to "free shipping" promotions; a copy of the freight invoice will be provided).

  • A restocking fee of $50 or 25% of the purchase price, whichever is greater.

  • A 3% credit card processing fee.

  • The cost of any damages incurred to the returned item(s), if applicable.

  • Refunds will be mailed to the buyer in the form of a check.

Example: A buyer paid $850 for an item. Our cost to ship the item was $100. The item was returned with no damages. The refund would be $537.50. Calculation: $850 (Original Price) - $100 (Our Shipping Cost) - $212.50 (25% Restocking Fee) = $537.50.

• 5.5. Exclusions: The 30-day money-back guarantee is NOT offered for:

  • Items purchased at a reduced or sale price.

  • Bulk orders (defined as 4 or more individual items).

  • Any used or opened items.

  • Any items built to a unique specification per the buyer's instruction (custom orders).
