ABSTRACT:
A burial container assembly with a lid constructed of a top and a plurality of sides extending from the top and which defines a first shell having a hollowed interior and a downwardly facing perimeter edge. A base is likewise provided with a bottom and both side walls and end walls which extend from the bottom to establish an open interior and an upwardly facing perimeter edge and which in combination define a second shell with a likewise hollowed interior. The base is preferably provided as a rectangular shaped body with an outwardly extending ledge projecting around a perimeter of the body and around which are assembled a plurality of individual side/end pieces and corner pieces to establish the hollowed shell of the base. Both the base and lid are capable of being filled with a foam filler material to greatly increase the load bearing and force resistive capabilities of the burial container assembly and the base and lid are further provided with a unique configuration of negative impressions along its surfaces which facilitate the location and fixed engagement within the surrounding earth. A method of assembling a burial container is also disclosed and facilitates ease of transportation and assembly of the assembly.
