HOW CAN A MAUSOLEUM HELP REDUCE EXPENSES?
In almost every case, it wont reduce expenses. In fact, using a mausoleum may increase expenses. While use of a mausoleum eliminates the purchase of a cemetery lot and burial vault, the initial purchase price of the mausoleum may exceed the costs of those other items necessary for earth burial. Furthermore, some cemetery mausoleums require certain types of caskets, which may not be the most economically priced. Finally, there have been cases of mausoleums deteriorating over the years to the point of having to remove the caskets and bury them in a cemetery. Consult us and consider all the facts before making any decisions.
