North Americans spend billions on funerals every year, but the funeral or burial services don't have to be high-priced. A funeral can be a simple internment or an elaborate affair with music, speakers, customised boxes and refreshments for mourners. Family, spiritual or personal choices are significant, but cost and convenience should be regarded as well.
"Many families are forced to make calls about funerals under stress," said Michelle L. Corey, BBB President and Ceo. "By training themselves about the method and taking time to pose questions and compare costs, families can avoid overspending. They're likelier to get the type of service they need, too."
The Federal Trade Commission's Funeral Rule gives patrons numerous rights, including the prerogative to receive written price lists, explanations of cemetery or legal requirements and the choice of employing a container aside from a casket for cremation. Some graveyards have their own wants, which must be explained completely before you make a purchase.
