This covers basic services of funeral director and staff, a proportionate share of overhead costs, transfer from place of death into our care, refrigeration and sheltering of remains, standard cremation fee and placement of obituary on funeral home website. It does not cover holding the body beyond the days this list includes and additional certified copies of the death certificate beyond what the figure above already includes, which are priced one at a time.

Any sales tax is approximate, so ask the funeral home for the exact amount.

What the county fee is

For the cremation figures: This fee is charged by the county where the death occurred, not the county where the funeral home is. A family using a Miami-Dade County funeral home for a death that happened in Lee County pays the Lee County fee. Pick the county of death to know the amount.

For the burial figures: This fee is charged by the county where the death occurred, not the county where the funeral home is. The amount for this state is not on file here, so ask the funeral home.

For the cremation figures: In this list: in FL, Volusia County at $50, Lee County and Miami-Dade County at $75, Manatee County and Sarasota County at $35, Orange County and Osceola County at $60 and DeSoto County charging no fee. A county not in this list charges something too; ask that county or the funeral home.

For the burial figures: In this list: in FL, 8 counties charging no fee. A county not in this list charges something too; ask that county or the funeral home.

Certified copies of the death certificate

One certified copy of the death certificate is included in every figure on this page.

This home's price list says in its own words that a certified copy of the death certificate is $12 each. This is what the record itself costs. Ask the funeral home whether it charges anything to order them for you.

How many certified copies do you need?

Most families need more than one. Raising the count raises every figure on this page.

One certified copy is $12.

Nobody can tell you how many you will need. Banks, insurers, and pension offices each tend to want their own, so families commonly order several. Set the count and the line says what that comes to.

Tax is always approximate. Ask the funeral home for the exact amount.
