Funeral cost guidance

Understand the Factors That Shape Funeral Costs

Q: Can I receive current cost information by telephone?

Yes. Call 347-588-5555. A Horizon funeral director can explain the relevant service choices, what may be required, and which costs may come from outside providers.

Q: Which outside charges may apply?

Depending on the arrangement, outside charges can include cemetery or crematory fees, permits, certified copies, clergy, airline or cargo services, consular requirements, and receiving-funeral-home services.

Q: Will the selections be documented before services proceed?

The funeral director reviews the selected services, merchandise, and known outside charges and provides written documentation for the individual arrangement. Ask about any item that is unclear before authorizing it.

Learn how service choices, merchandise, transportation, disposition, and outside providers can affect an individual arrangement.

Clear information for the individual arrangement

Understand the complete arrangement before authorizing it.

A meaningful cost discussion begins with the services the family wants, what may be required, the merchandise selected, the place of disposition, transportation needs, and charges from outside providers.

Horizon explains the available choices, distinguishes funeral-home services from third-party charges, and documents the selections for the individual arrangement. Call for current information based on your family's needs.

Cost considerations

The total depends on the arrangement selected.

Professional services and staff

The arrangement conference, authorizations, coordination, preparation, supervision, and staff needed depend on the services selected by the family.

Facilities, vehicles, and transportation

Transfer distance, use of Horizon's facilities, procession vehicles, cemetery or crematory transportation, and travel outside the local area can affect the arrangement.

Merchandise and preparation

The container, casket, urn, memorial materials, preparation choices, and any special requests are selected separately according to the family's wishes.

Outside providers

Cemetery, crematory, clergy, permits, certified copies, airline, consular, receiving-funeral-home, and other third-party charges may apply.

Cost questions

Ask what each part of the arrangement covers.

A clear explanation supports informed decision-making. Horizon reviews the available alternatives and documents the selections for the individual arrangement.

Review direct-cremation details

Are current dollar amounts shown on this website?

No. Horizon provides current cost information directly after learning what the family needs. This avoids presenting an incomplete total before the services, merchandise, transportation, disposition, and outside-provider charges are understood.
