Facts You Should Know When Considering Pre-Paid Funeral Packages

When a loved one dies it is a very distressing and emotional experience, especially if you are responsible for making all the arrangements. It is an experience that will not get any easier, no matter how often you have been in that position. Individuals who decide to choose their funeral packages are helping their loved ones to cope with what is a very distressing and emotional time.

If you choose to make your own plans you have the opportunity to have your wishes carried out precisely. You can make as many of the decisions or as little as you want. You can specify the flowers, the music, the type of casket and how your remains are to be disposed off. Choosing whether to bury, inter or cremate is often the subject of debate and disagreement between family members.

A family plot in a cemetery may not be large enough for all the family members. Families need to be part of an informed discussion as to who will be buried in the family plot. If a burial plot or a vault is required the funeral director can be instructed to make the arrangements.

You may choose to pay for your arrangements in advance, or you can set money aside to be paid after the event. However keep in mind that prices are more likely to increase in the intervening years than decrease. You should review the costs and your arrangements every few years.

If you decide to pay in advance, read the contract carefully. Know exactly what you are paying for and how increased costs will impact on your arrangements. You also need to find out how your fund will be used or invested until the money is required.

Each state is responsible for setting the regulations on funeral packages and pre-payments. Anyone intending to pay into a pre-payment plan should research the regulations set by their state authorities.
