Discount Cremations

Friday, October 23, 2009 by David Ring
Beware of most low cost cremation advertisements.  Many advertise cheap cremations Indiana, but add on for basic services such as transportation from place of death, crematory fees, document courier fees, cremation containers, etc.  Indiana Funeral Care simple cremation costs $890 and includes all basic services except for charges from outside sources that we cannot control (death certificates and obituaries).

Missing in America Project

Have you heard about the Missing in America Project?  Their mission is to locate, identify and inter the unclaimed cremated remains of American veterans through the joint efforts of private, state and federal organizations. To provide honor and respect to those who have served this country by securing a final resting place for these forgotten heroes.  To date they have visited 592 funeral homes, identified 491 unclaimed veterans cremains and interred 321.

Many veterans are unaware of the benefits available to them.  Most funeral homes won't even mention these benefits!  At Indiana Funeral Care, we are proud to serve veterans and their spouses and work hard to make sure they get all of the benefits to which they are entitled, such as:
  • Free cemetery space at a natioanl cemetery
  • Free burial vault
  • Free opening and closing
  • Free grave marker

Contact Indiana Funeral Care today to find out more about veteran benefits.  We offer discount cremations starting at $890 and complete church funerals starting at $3,950. 

Indiana Discount Funerals

People searching for Indiana Discount Funerals want to make their own informed decisions.  Most people want to make a purchase decision based on facts and not what a funeral director talks them into.  When consumers go to Lowes or Home Depot, they make a purchase decision on their own based on product information on the box and on price.  If they want advice, they ask for it.  Consumers visit www.indianafuneralcare.com and find complete and understandable funeral and cremation service details and price information.  If they have questions, they call.

Discount Cremations

A caller pleaded that someone has to offer discount cremations in Indiana!  She had called several funeral homes looking for low price or discount cremations with no success. One had quoted the price of the cremation for $1,400, plus a container for $125, plus the cremation fee of $300, plus, plus plus!  Another said they could save her lots of money over a regular funeral and their price was $2,995.  When I told her our price is $890, she responded, "Plus what?  What are the ad ons?"  When she realized the price is $890 complete, she replied, "Now that's more like it!  An honest up front, no frills company that offers discount cremations!"

Cheap Cremations Indiana

Friday, September 19, 2008 by David Ring

We talked with an out of town family today that was quoted by a funeral home in their city, $3,000 for a cremation and $1,500 extra if the death occured and arrangements were made on a weekend.  I understand that it costs more for staff to work on a weekend, but $1,500?  Wow! 

I never thought you could refer to our price as a "cheap cremation", but apparently it is.  I would prefer to think of it as low cost cremation or value price cremation. 

Cheap cremations

 Cheap doesn't have to mean low-quality. Why pay more than you need to? Our cost for direct cremation is reasonable, affordable, and we treat your family and loved one as if they were our own. We can offer cheap cremations and cheap funerals not because we are doing a half-assed job, but because we are a small family-owned business that believe that things can be done differently than most other funeral homes and discount cremation providers. You can have as much involvement with the cremation as you'd like- even accompaning your loved one to the crematory and participating in the cremation, and there will be no doubt in your mind that we take care of everybody - living and dead- and that you can still have a cheap cremation that is done properly, with respect and care. How many other service providers will allow that?

Cheap Funerals in Indiana

Why do more and more people Google for discount funerals and cremations in Indiana?  There is a small but rapidly growing segment of people that are looking for more simplicity and less expense in funeral and cremation services.  There are lots of good traditional funeral homes in Indiana, but trying to find a quality value provider that offers "discount funerals" or "discount cremations" in Indiana is a difficult task.
    Many funeral home websites have beautiful graphics and colors, but no pricing information.  There is a reason!  When you visit the website of Indiana Funeral Care you will see they offer cremation and funeral packages anywhere in Indiana at discount prices, 40% to 50% less than traditional funeral homes. 

Low Cost Cremations

Friday, July 18, 2008 by David Ring

I was honored to speak to the incoming District Commanders at the American Legion Department of Indiana, July 13.  One of the Commanders volunteered that he learned he could transfer the arrangements he had made for he and his wife to be cremated.  They made the arrangements before they were aware of cremation services offered by Veterans Funeral Care through the American Legion.  He was amazed that our prices on cremation services were so much less expensive.  He was very pleased to learn that Veterans Funeral Care refunds the excess amount in the trust at the time of need to the next of kin and wanted other Legionnaires to be aware of that.

As cheap as possible

Tuesday, June 17, 2008 by Joel IFC
 "As cheap as possible, no offense" are words that I frequently hear from families that don't have any interest in doing the traditional funeral service. Of course I'm not offended, because what works for one individual or family might not work for another. "To each their own" is a good philosophy to hold in this business.
But what defines cheap? Low cost funerals or low cost direct cremations can be done, and done with class, but Value is more important than dollars. It can be hard to put a dollar value to how a person feels when they feel as if they and their loved one have been taken care of properly. You don't have to spend an arm and a leg to be treated with dignity and respect. Simply call or visit us and you'll see why we have the word "CARE" in our name. It doesn't matter if you're seeking a discount cremation or discount funeral, or if you'd prefer 'going all out' with all the bells & whistles. Everyone gets the same loving care from us because at Indiana Funeral Care, it's our family taking care of your family.
