How we compiled this
These figures are medians from real price data Calla holds for providers in Oakland, CA, current as of Updated July 2026. Each row reflects the providers we price for that service; rows with too few priced providers are left out rather than estimated. Prices are compared like-for-like against the national typical range and are not inflated with non-standard add-ons. Always request an itemized price list — providers must give you one under the FTC Funeral Rule. Read our full data methodology.
