What funerals really cost in America
A funeral with burial in the US typically runs about $7,000 to $12,000, while cremation usually costs $1,000 to $5,000 depending on the services chosen. Calla's reports skip the national average and use real prices from local providers to show what funerals and cremation actually cost in your state and city.
