Around here (South Central PA) you have a few choices. All of them cost a few dollars and may have some emotional baggage to carry.
Rendering plant will pick up the corpse, but might take a few days before they fit it in. Not too bad in the winter, but not very manageable in summer months (~$300).
State Lab will do Necropsy for $150 and dispose of the body, but you have to get the corpse transported to the lab probably an additional $200 or so for me. Would be worse for areas farther from Harrisburg.
Couple of landfills will take the body so there is a guy who does roll-off dumpsters who has a nice set up with basically a short dumpster with a side that opens to slide the body into. (Again ~$300).
Then there is the crematorium. Drop about $1500 and get a nice box back and if you want they will cut the tail off first and give that back as well.
Unfortunately it is illegal to dispose of a corpse by simply burying it here. I don't have a backhoe, but could borrow/rent one to dig a hole. Not sure if the neighbors would say anything or not.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
