FYI, cremation can still be expensive. If you are serious about spending the least amount of money possible, consider telling your family you'd like to be donated to science. But, do be aware, there can be some controversial things under the umbrella of "donated for science", and they'd have no control over what.

Doesnt matter to me. Science can do whatever it wants with my meat when I'm through. Dissect it, preserve it, shoot it out of a cannon, stuff it and use it as a sex doll, it doesn't matter. It's not me at that point, it's just meat and bone. Although I'm probably an outlier, I never got the whole reverence for the dead thing. They're dead, literally nothing after that fact matters.

Can I donate my body to Disney animatronics?

I just told my local cannibal he can have what's left after the organ donations. Waste not, want not.
