Increase in burial costs
Each year in Canada, a growing number of people are opting for cremation and it’s also now estimated that 1 in three people decide on cremation when compared to average burial. Burial costs are increasing and for a lot of us, cremation can be the only option.The cheapest cremation available is a ‘direct cremation’. This involves no viewings or ceremony and an rough price for this is $600. There will be extra costs for other services supplied by the funeral home such as transportation of the body ($600).After the funeral in waterloo you then need to arrange where the ashes will be kept and there are various options available. The majority of people keep the ashes at home in an urn or alternatively ashes may be scattered at a favourite place of the deceased. Burial plots with a headstone also are an option, but be sure to shop around for both headstones and urns as these can vary in price fairly considerably.
