Planning a funeral in Detroit, MI

You’ll find that funeral homes vary widely in prices and quality, even for the exact same services.

While the average full-service funeral in Detroit costs close to $10,000, you’ll find several options for direct cremation for less than $1,000. If you’re price sensitive (and/or concerned about environmental impact), direct cremation can be a good option. Choosing direct cremation doesn’t mean that you can’t have a memorial service; it just means that the funeral home won’t help with event organization.
