Although it’s a sensitive subject in many families, having the proper arrangements made for after you pass away is essential. Funeral pre-planning gives you the ability to make those arrangements yourself to ensure you receive the perfect memorial service. To learn more about pre-planning a funeral, the following are several answers to commonly asked questions about funeral pre-planning.

What You Need to Know About Funeral Pre-Planning

What are the benefits of funeral pre-planning?

Mapping out your funeral service gives you more time to make informed decisions and schedule the arrangements. With pre-planning, you’re guaranteed a service that’s tailored to your wishes. It also helps out your friends and family by taking away the stress of making funeral arrangements while grieving.

What if I want to be cremated?

Do I have to pay up front?

Most funeral homes will provide you with two payment options. Once all of the arrangements have been set, you can choose to wait until after the funeral to pay. Pre-paying is the other option, and this involves paying up front for all of the services you requested. One benefit of pre-paying is that it locks you into the current rate of service, which will keep costs down if prices rise later on.

What if I move or want to change funeral homes?

When the funeral arrangements have been made and agreed upon, those arrangements are linked to your personal information. If you move or want a change of venue, the arrangements can be transferred to the provider of your choosing. If you have pre-payed, those funds will be transferred to cover the funeral service at the new funeral home regardless of where you are.
