Cheap Funeral exists because the average traditional funeral costs $8,300 (NFDA 2023 median) while a direct cremation runs $895–$1,200 in the same metro. The price gap is real — and most families pay the higher number because no one ever showed them the cheaper qualified option.
Every listing on this site is sourced from the home's published General Price List under FTC rules. Partners willing to publish their numbers and compete on price get featured placement. Partners who want to hide pricing or charge premium fees do not belong here — they have other directories.
Pre-need insurance brokers are the third leg: a family that locks today's price avoids the 3–5% annual increase between now and the funeral. Brokers who sell transparent single-pay or installment contracts qualify; pressure-sale outfits do not.
