How much does cremation cost in North Carolina?
$2,815. That is the middle figure of the 41 funeral homes in North Carolina whose own posted price lists we have read for direct cremation. The least expensive of them is $1,795 and the most expensive is $4,605.
The price lists behind these figures are dated Jan 22, 2026 to Aug 18, 2026. We last checked it on Aug 18, 2026.
Every figure is that home's own posted price with its county's fee and one certified copy of the death certificate added, wherever both are on file, rounded once. Open a home to change the county or the number of copies.
A state's median is the middle of the figures the homes in it show, so it carries the same county fees and the same one certified copy those figures carry.
Narrowing it down by county
The North Carolina price lists we hold do not record which county each home is in yet, so this page cannot narrow by county. Every one of them is placed at its own address on the state map instead.

Other questions about North Carolina
No funeral home charges the middle figure. It is a place to start from. The home you call will quote you its own price, and the federal Funeral Rule says it has to give you its price list in writing when you sit down with it.
