But the main reason, as you might expect, is cost. Cremation is cheaper than burial. The average cost of a funeral today is about $6,500, including the typical $2,000-or-more cost of a casket. Add a burial vault, and the average jumps to around $7,700. A cremation, by contrast, typically costs a third of those amounts, or less. In a tough economy like the current one, cost counts â a lot.
According to the Cremation Association of North America (CANA), the price tag for a simple cremation costs an average of $1,650, and this includes a simple memorial service. If no memorial service is included and a simple direct cremation is performed, the average price is $725. The cost to inter a cremation urn is also significantly less than the cost for a burial plot for a casket. Burial plots can range anywhere between $1,650 and $5,000, whereas a cremation burial space averages about $995. In 1980 about one in ten people who died in the U.S. were cremated, by 2012 this has reached 41% and by 2018 it is expected that at least half of all deaths will be followed by a cremation.
