Gulf to Bay Cremation

Gulf to Bay Cremation operates as a cremation-only provider from its Clearwater location at 587 S Duncan Avenue, serving families throughout Tampa Bay including Clearwater, Largo, and Indian Rocks Beach. The business is family-owned and operated by funeral director Andrew Winterkorn and his wife Darlene, who handle arrangements directly with families.

The operation is built around a single service model: direct cremation with no funeral services, memorials, viewings, or embalming. This narrow focus allows for streamlined operations and pricing significantly below traditional funeral homes. Families can complete the entire arrangement process online in approximately 30 minutes, or arrange by phone.

The standard timeline runs 8-10 business days from completion of paperwork to return of cremated remains, though the site notes this can extend to 8-11 business days in some cases.
