The basic services of a funeral home, including removing the deceased from the place of death, temporary care of the deceased prior to cremation, use of the facilities of the funeral home and staff services for a basic arrangement conference, will vary.

Since such a wide variety of services and merchandise are included in the charges of different funeral homes, no direct comparisons should be made without a thorough investigation.

Cremated remains may be buried in a regular ground burial space, buried in an area set aside for cremated remains, scatter garden or placed in a niche. Many cemeteries allow cremated remains to be placed in a burial space with the remains of a relative.

For specific cost information it is normally best to speak directly with an experienced licensed funeral director or licensed cemetery manager.
