Mortuary Body Bags: Affordable Options and Prices

Body bags and disaster pouches are a staple supply for any funeral home, morgue, or removal service — and they range widely in price and durability depending on the job. Here's how to choose the right one and get good value.

Types of mortuary body bags

• Standard body bags — everyday first-call and transport pouches, usually with multiple handles and a center or side zipper.
• Heavy-duty and reinforced bags — thicker material and reinforced handles for bariatric cases or difficult removals.
• Sealing pouches — systems such as BioSeal that create a sealed barrier for infectious or high-risk cases.

What drives the price

Expect to pay anywhere from under $20 for a basic single-use pouch to a few hundred dollars for a heavy-duty disaster or sealing pouch. Price tracks material thickness, zipper and handle quality, weight capacity, and whether the bag is disposable or reusable.

Buying smart

Keep a range of sizes and duty levels on hand so you're ready for routine removals and difficult cases alike. Buying in reasonable quantity usually lowers your per-unit cost. For more ways to equip a facility affordably, see our guide to affordable mortuary supplies.
