The organization of a funeral is a very difficult and costly business. Not everyone has the opportunity to save money for a rainy day, and preparing in advance for leaving life is not the most joyful activity.
The death of a person is a sad event
If the death of a person was taken by surprise, it remains only to look for means to adequately lead a person on his last journey and at the same time observe all traditions. It is estimated that the cheapest method of burial is to cremate a person. In Moscow, the provision of crematorium services costs 3400 rubles. Before death, everyone can bequeath to bury himself in this way. This method is less costly and also environmentally friendly. Costs for digging a grave, payment for a ritual brigade are excluded. Sometimes there is no place at all in the cemeteries to carry out a burial.
There are many funeral agencies that help families organize funerals. They will do all the hard work. In such a difficult period of life, it is difficult to think about any worries, documents, so special services will take it upon themselves. Of course, you have to pay for each service, so there is no talk of saving money here.
There is a burial allowance. The state thus helps people who are faced with the death of a loved one. In Moscow, the amount of this social benefit is 15,515 rubles.
It is worthy to spend on the last journey
If a family is experiencing financial difficulties, this does not mean that they will not be able to bury a person with dignity. Of course, you will have to run around the authorities, collect documents, choose a place in the cemetery, order a coffin, wreaths and all other paraphernalia. If a sad event fell on a weekday, then everything you need can be done in a day. You should also determine how much funds are available and estimate the approximate cost of all costs. Now you have to pay for everything, including a place in the cemetery. Relatives are never left on the sidelines when such a sad event occurs. Everyone is trying to provide all possible help, since it is not cheap to bury a person.
If you have friends and relatives who are the owners of the bus, you can ask them to organize the transportation of the funeral procession.
What can you save on
You can save money when choosing ritual paraphernalia. Coffins are made and trimmed with different materials. The cost will depend on this. When the amount of funds is limited, then you should not arrange a funeral on a grand scale to please public opinion. When organizing a memorial dinner, you need to accurately determine the number of people. The more attendees, the greater the cost of the meal. You can bring some food, alcohol, pastries on your own. Thus, save a little. On such occasions, it is not necessary to order fancy restaurants, a decent dining room will do.
