What Does a Typical Funeral Cost?

At Geib, we believe there is no such thing as a “typical” funeral, and so we pride ourselves on offering families funeral service choices that fit their budget and preferences.



Here, you will find more choices exist than you probably thought. We want to deliver superior value at a price that is comfortable for you. You can review our General Funeral Services Price List below. But we encourage you to please call us with questions and consider coming in for a complimentary consultation at no cost and at no obligation.

The goods and services shown below are those we can provide to our customers. You may choose only the items you desire. However, any funeral arrangements you select will include a charge for our basic services and overhead. If legal or other requirements mean you must buy any items you did not specifically ask for, we will explain the reason in writing on the statement we provide describing the funeral goods and services you selected. These prices are effective March 1, 2022, and are subject to change without notice. All costs are determined when services are provided.

Professional Services

Basic services of funeral director and staff - $ 2,095.00

Our charge includes responding to initial requests for service, conducting the arrangement conference, securing necessary permits, documents and authorizations, preparing notices, temporarily sheltering the deceased, and coordinating the arrangements with the cemetery, crematory or third parties. This fee for our basic services and overhead will be added to the total cost of the funeral arrangements you select. (This charge is already included in our charges for direct cremations, immediate burials and forwarding or receiving remains.)

Embalming - $ 675.00

Except in certain special cases, embalming is not required by law. Embalming may be necessary, however, if you select certain funeral arrangements, such as funeral with viewing. If you do not want embalming, you usually have the right to choose an arrangement that does not require you to pay for it, such as direct cremation or immediate burial. In the interest of public health, this funeral home requires embalming if the deceased is to be encountered for any category of viewing, except identification, which can be made by way of photograph to limit OSHA regulated exposure risks of encountering any biohazardous substance, if embalming is expressly declined.

Alternative sanitary care of the deceased - $ 350.00

This is the holding of the deceased for burial or cremation for up to 7 days when embalming is not elected. A $50.00 daily surcharge applies for refrigeration after 7 days. An unembalmed body presents a health hazard to our employees and to the general public. The deceased is placed in an especially designed refrigeration room.
