WHAT ARE THE AVERAGE FUNERAL COSTS TODAY?

There are a number of factors that are going to go into determining how much a funeral costs. In 2013, the average funeral is going cost between $7,000.00 and $10,000.00. This general estimate is going to include the cost of funeral home services, a burial plot at a cemetery, and the installation and cost of the headstone. In the last several years, cremation has been growing in popularity, but the traditional burial still remains the preferred method of burying a dead loved one.

Two of the biggest factors that are going to go into determining the cost of a funeral are geographic location and the type of funeral home that conducts the services. However, here are several ballpark figures of what a person can expect to pay:

A funeral director’s services: $1,500.00
Casket costs (on average): $2,300.00
Cost of embalmment: $600.00
The cost of hosting funeral services at an actual funeral home: $500.00
Grave site cost: $1,000.00
Grave digger’s fees: $500.00
Cost of a grave liner: $1,000.00
Headstone costs: $1,500.00
