How are funeral services priced?
A.The cost of services is determined by the type of service chosen and the individual components of that service. Shackelford Funeral Directors offers convenient service packages consisting of items that are chosen most often by the families we serve. A service package includes all components of a particular type of service for a single fee. Examples of different service packages would include the traditional funeral service, graveside service, forwarding to another funeral home, receiving from another funeral home, immediate burial, and cremation packages. Individual service components may also be purchased separately from our itemized general price list. The cost of a service is based on the actual expense related to the specific items chosen, as well as a percentage of operating expenses.
