This covers transfer of remains, basic services of staff, transfer of remains to crematory and cremation charge. If you want to arrange a direct cremation, you can use an alternate container. The containers we provide are corrugated cardboard. It does not cover mileage beyond the distance this list includes and additional certified copies of the death certificate beyond what the figure above already includes, which are priced one at a time. The county permit fee belongs to the county where the death occurred, not the county where the funeral home is, so pick that county below or ask the funeral home. Any sales tax is approximate, so ask the funeral home for the exact amount.

The figure above adds one certified copy of the death certificate at $25 to this home's own price.

This price is the home's own package, the one it calls "Direct Cremation".

This list charges by the mile once the drive passes the distance its price covers. How far that is for a family is not something this figure can know, so no amount for it is in the total. The list says: "AUTOMOTIVE TRANSFER OF REMAINS TO FUNERAL HOME(Local) (Local-plus $3.00 per loaded mile over 35 miles) **subject to fuel surcharge** $ 345.00 FUNERAL HEARSE(Local) (Local-plus $3.00 per loaded mile over 35 miles)**subject to fuel surcharge** $ 345.00"

These figures are ballparks for comparing homes, not quotes.

These figures are assembled from this home's own posted price list, and each one is rounded up to the next $5. Treat them as a way to compare homes, not as a quote. Only the funeral home can quote you.

What the county fee is

This fee is charged by the county where the death occurred, not the county where the funeral home is. The amount for this state is not on file here, so ask the funeral home.

In this list: in FL, Volusia County at $50, Lee County and Miami-Dade County at $75, Manatee County and Sarasota County at $35, Orange County and Osceola County at $60 and DeSoto County charging no fee; in NC, 100 counties with no fee on file here; in SC, Bamberg County at $35, Richland County at $20 and 44 counties with no fee on file here; in TN, 95 counties with no fee on file here. A county not in this list charges something too; ask that county or the funeral home.

The counties of the states this one touches are in the list too, each one labeled with its state, because a death does not stop at a state line.

Certified copies of the death certificate

One certified copy of the death certificate is included in every figure on this page.

This home's list does not post a price for a certified copy of the death certificate. Georgia charges $25 for the first copy and $5 for each one after it, so those are the figures below. This is what the record itself costs. Ask the funeral home whether it charges anything to order them for you.

How many certified copies do you need?

Most families need more than one. Raising the count raises every figure on this page.

One certified copy is $25, and each one after that is $5.

Nobody can tell you how many you will need. Banks, insurers, and pension offices each tend to want their own, so families commonly order several. Set the count and the line says what that comes to.

Tax is always approximate. Ask the funeral home for the exact amount.
