Nationally, the median is about $8,300 for a burial with viewing and about $6,280 for a cremation with a ceremony — but the spread between two funeral homes in one city is usually wider than the spread between states. Every US funeral home must hand you an itemized price list on request, and comparing two of them is the highest-value hour a family can spend.
