Top Reasons to Pre-Plan Before You Need It


Preplanning a funeral is not such an alien concept any longer and many people are opting for it. It’s one of the best ways to ensure that you get the kind of funeral you want and that your family members don’t have to worry about how to finance the service after your death.

Why Pre-Plan In Advance?

Simply Cremations is a well-established funeral home. We have seen that many clients now ask about what this option involves and why they might want to opt for it. Look at why preplanning before you need it is the right way to go:

  • Death isn’t something that announces itself. Preplanning well before you need it is a good way to cover the possibility of your family members being saddled with the responsibility of planning everything down to the last detail after your death.

  • You can decide exactly how you want your funeral service to be. If you have some specific ideas, you can discuss those with the funeral director and plan for them accordingly.

  • When you plan before you need it, you also pay the costs as per the rates, which exist at that time, and even if these rates increase in the future, it will not affect the cost of the funeral. Since the prices are locked-in on the contract date, inflation does not affect what you pay for the funeral

  • You get the chance to decide exactly which services you prefer and can discuss those with the funeral director.
Preplanning is an ideal way to be sure that your service is held just the way you want it to be. If you have any questions about our funeral services or want to arrange a cremation, don't hesitate to get in touch with us at Simply Cremations today.

  At Simply Cremations & Funeral Services, we have observed that cremation is the most popular method of disposition in the province, with about 65% of the population choosing cremation as their final disposition. As an alternative to burial, cremation is often seen as more eco-friendly, and the cremation pricing is typically much lower when compared with a traditional burial. What Is The Average Cremation Pricing? The cost to have a loved one cremated in our area depends on several factors, including the desired services, the funeral home you work with, and your geographic location. You can anticipate paying between $1,095 and $1,295 to arrange a simple, direct cremation in Calgary, Edmonton, and Red Deer metro areas.
