How much does a traditional funeral cost in Illinois?
$9,315. That is the median of the figures posted by the 49 funeral homes in Illinois whose price lists we have read for a traditional funeral. The least expensive of them is $4,845 and the most expensive is $11,855.
The price lists behind these figures are dated Jan 1, 2022 to Jul 29, 2026. We last checked them between Aug 18, 2026 and Sep 11, 2026.
Every figure is that home's own posted price with its county's permit fee and one certified copy of the death certificate added, wherever both are on file, rounded once. Open a home to change the county or the number of copies.
What this includes
A state's median is the middle of the figures the homes in it show, so it carries the same county fees and the same one certified copy those figures carry.

Other questions about Illinois
No funeral home charges the median. It's where to start, not what you'll pay. The home you call will quote its own price, and the Federal Trade Commission's Funeral Rule requires it to give you a price list you can keep when you sit down with it.
