Why prices differ so much
Two providers a few miles apart can quote thousands of dollars apart for the same direct cremation. Families rarely compare, because comparing has always meant calling funeral homes during the worst week of their life. The Federal Trade Commission's Funeral Rule requires providers to give price information — this directory simply gathers it in one place, in advance.
