Arranging a low cost cremation in Boca Raton FL – $995

Cheap cremation Monroe LA

Cremation is a popular disposition choice in Florida, and the SE Florida area has some of the lowest-cost cremation services in the U.S. This is partly because Florida is one of only two states where direct disposers are licensed.

A direct disposer does not have to operate a funeral establishment or an embalming facility to legally run a cremation-only business, which can significantly reduce overheads. However, be careful, as sometimes a direct disposer’s seemingly cheap cremation price will not include some services that a licensed funeral home includes.
