Cemeteries across the country are required by law to provide consumers with a detailed breakdown of charges when purchasing property, either in a pre-need or at-need situation. When you contact a cemetery for pricing information, make certain that they are providing all the charges. The price of the lot, crypt or niche alone constitutes only a portion of the total cost. As a consumer, you are only able to make a value decision if you research all the costs associated with burial or interment.
