Caskets - Points to consider when buying a Funeral Casket
A Guide to Buying a Casket
The purchase of a casket or coffin is an integral aspect of making funeral arrangements. It is also typically the single, largest purchase related to a funeral. Unfortunately most people are thrust into making a decision about buying a casket when they are feeling extremely emotional, and this means their buying decisions are not necessarily the most rational. A casket used to cost a minimum of around $2,500 - $3,000 to purchase but today you can buy a standard metal casket for around $995.
We should also point out that there is no state law (in any state) that stipulates that a casket must be used for a burial. State law for cremation generally states that a “suitable, rigid, combustible” container must be used for cremation.
