How to Turn a Refrigerator Into a Coffin

For various reasons, a real coffin can sometimes be impractical for burial uses. Whether you’re in a hurry, can’t afford a wooden box or merely following the requests of the deceased, it can be handy to utilize a bit of thrift to turn that old fridge into a proper burial receptacle.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Corpse
• Refrigerator
• Shovel or digging apparatus
• Chains or strong, wide straps

1. Empty out the refrigerator. Clean out all the food. You may want to clean it out using cleaning supplies, just out of respect.

2. Remove the drawers and shelves from the refrigerator. You’re going to need a lot of space for the body.

3. Place the body in the refrigerator. This step is self-explanatory.

4. Close the refrigerator tight. Don’t just close the door of the fridge and forget it--chain those suckers closed or use industrial straps. This will prevent animals or nosy people from getting into the contents.

5. Bury it. Make sure you dig a hole more than 6 feet deep since the refrigerator is a bit thicker than a typical coffin. Drop the fridge in the hole, and cover it with dirt.

Tips & Warnings

• Some people mix concrete and put that on top of the refrigerator to further discourage snooping, though this method will preserve the body longer.
