District of Columbia funeral prices
The median in District of Columbia, for each service where enough price lists post one:
- Direct cremation
- $4,415 from only 4 price lists
- Cremation with a service
- $8,175 from only 3 price lists
- Immediate burial
- $4,315 from 5 price lists
- Burial with a graveside service
- $5,110 from only 3 price lists
- Traditional funeral
- $7,105 from only 3 price lists
A figure drawn from only a few price lists is a marker of the range rather than a going rate. Every price behind it is real and posted, and there are not yet enough of them for the middle to settle.
By the state rosters, 36 funeral homes are operating today in District of Columbia, and we hold a posted price for 5 of them.
The newest price list behind these figures is dated Aug 25, 2026.

Choose any column heading to sort on it, and choose the same heading again to reverse the direction. A home with no figure for the column stays in the table either way. 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.
District of Columbia, where the work stands
13 funeral homes are published on this page, 13 of them on the map. 8 of them are published homes just across the line rather than in District of Columbia, which is why this count runs higher than the District of Columbia figure at the top of the page. The map draws a home only where we hold a price, could place the address, and the home posts the service you have selected, so a pin comes and goes as you switch service. Every published home stays in the table whichever service you pick, with the reason it is missing from the map printed beside it.
How to read this map
Published homes within 30 miles of the District of Columbia line are drawn too, even when they sit in the next state, because a family near the border shops across it. Those pins carry their own state and link to their own state's page. An address we could place only to the town, and not to the street, is drawn as an open ring rather than a filled dot, and the table says which is which.

How this table is built
Every table on this site gives each funeral home one row and lists the same five services in the same order, so the figure you are reading is always in the same place. Each figure is the rounded ballpark that home's own page shows, and it links back to the page that shows the document it came from. Where a home's list carries no figure for a service, the cell says so. Choose any column heading to sort on it, and choose the same heading again to reverse the direction. A home with no figure stays in the table either way.
There are 36 funeral homes operating today in District of Columbia, by the state rosters. 18 of them post a price list we hold, and 5 have been read and reviewed far enough to publish here. A home missing from this table is one our collecting has not reached, never a home that charges nothing.

Sorted by funeral home name.
What each column means
- Direct cremation
- No viewing and no ceremony. The transfer into the funeral home's care, the cremation itself, and the filings.
- Cremation with a service
- A viewing or a ceremony first, then cremation.
- Immediate burial
- Burial with no viewing and no ceremony beforehand.
- Burial with a graveside service
- The ceremony is at the graveside, with none at the funeral home beforehand.
- Traditional funeral
- A viewing, a ceremony, then burial.
A filled dot marks the least expensive figure in that column among the homes on this table.
A cell reading "not posted" means that home's own price list carries no figure for that service. We never estimate one.
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. A figure here includes a casket only where that home's own page says so. Otherwise the casket is chosen and priced separately at the funeral home. Tax is always approximate. Ask the funeral home for the exact amount. 8 homes here sit over the state line and are labeled with their own state, because a family near a border shops across it.
County by county
The same homes again, grouped the way a family shops: the county where the price list's record names one, the town where it does not. A published home within reach of the line from a neighboring state appears in the group it is near, labeled with its own state.
District of Columbia County
We do not yet publish how many funeral homes operate in this county, so this is every published home here rather than a proportion of the county's total. That total is still being collected.
