Our removal ambulance is a very well maintained, Silver, 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT. This is used to conduct all removals and transportation requests and is equipped with all supplies needed for safe and professional transportation of human remains. Listed below are some of the equipment used onboard.
- Ferno-Washington Model 24 Multi-Level Mortuary Removal Cot

- Reeves® Flexible Stretcher
- Typically used in the EMS/Ambulance service; this equipment is necessary for performing removals in a residential environment.
The Reeves® is a vinyl (PVC) sheet with wood slats used to wrap around the remains to give the body stability for maneuvering in tight places or for stairs.

- For a personal touch, Morning Star Transport uses this family friendly cover for all removals.
