In 2021, the average funeral with burial services cost approximately $7,848 while a funeral with cremation cost $6,971 on average.
When planning a funeral, understanding its various expenses can help you manage your financial obligation.
Funeral homes charge basic service fees that cover securing permits, obtaining death certificates, overhead expenses, and sheltering remains until cremation or burial.
Expenses for funeral services may include costs for using the funeral home facilities for the viewing, funeral ceremony (or memorial service), plus staff and printed materials.
Casket costs vary widely and will depending on the chosen materials. If the deceased’s wishes were to be cremated, an urn or cremation casket would need to be purchased.
Fees can include using a hearse to transport the remains from the funeral home to the burial site and the cost of a limousine (or other transportation) to bring the family to the cemetery.
Additionally, you may have to pay for equipment and staff for a graveyard service. Other expenses are burial plots and a headstone or grave markers.
These costs cover things like preparing and embalming the body and cosmetic preparations such as makeup and hair styling.
While cremation avoids many of the burial fees, it’s not inexpensive. Cremation costs depend on the required services needed and your state.
A personal loan through Prosper helps you finance the things that matter most.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT.

What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents.
