Planning a funeral can vary in time depending on the arrangements and the individual's preferences. It can take a few days to a few weeks to finalize all the details. However, with funeral preplanning, you can take your time to make decisions at your own pace, ensuring everything is in place well in advance.

The cost of a funeral can vary widely based on factors such as the type of service, casket choice, burial or cremation, and location. According to the National Funeral Directors Association (NFDA), the median cost of a funeral with a viewing and burial in 2023 was approximately $8,300 (not including a burial vault, which adds another $1,695).

Similar to funerals, the cost of cremation can vary based on the type of cremation, urn selection, and whether you choose a memorial service. The NFDA reports the average cost of a cremation with a viewing in 2023 was about $6,280.

Preplanning funeral arrangements can often be more cost-effective than arranging a funeral at the time of need. This is because you can lock in current prices and avoid future price increases. Additionally, prepaid funeral plans allow you to spread out payments over time, making it easier to manage financially.

Altogether offers flexible payment options for preplanned funerals to help you and your family members save money. You can pay in full with cash or a credit card or spread out the cost over time with a convenient installment plan.

Generally, prepaid funeral plans and arrangements cannot be altered after the individual has passed away. This is because the funds have already been allocated, and vendor contracts have been finalized. However, it's essential to discuss any specific concerns or potential changes with your funeral planner beforehand.
