Caskets And Funeral Costs

Caskets And Funeral Costs - Advice From A Licensed Funeral Director
By Jerry R. Guy

The largest cost variable in funeral prices is usually the merchandise selected. In most cases (but not always) this variable will be determined by the price of the casket selected.

While no one likes to think about buying one, they are in reality like any other retail product. Unlike the "coffins" of old, they now come in all colors imaginable and are made from countless different woods and metals. Like many other retail products, they can be as expensive or inexpensive as one may choose.

Purchasing a casket today can be as simple as sitting at your kitchen table with the "click of a mouse" on your home computer. Many large chain retail stores are now offering funeral items as well. As this trend continues to grow over the years to come, it will certainly effect prices as more third party retailers begin to sell caskets and other funeral merchandise.

Most funeral facilities have long recognized the impact of increased competition and funeral merchandise sales. Over the past few years funeral homes have become very competitive in pricing with these third party vendors. For this reason, I suggest you talk with your funeral facility of choice before making a purchase elsewhere. You could be surprised and you lose nothing by weighing all of your options before you decide.

As with any other major retail product purchases, careful consideration should be given before selecting and purchasing a casket. These considerations should offer an excellent opportunity for substantial savings and in the total funeral costs.
