funeral expenses

Costs for interment

Funeral expenses are the costs associated with disposing of a dead body and commemorating the deceased—burial or cremation, casket or urn, embalming, funeral home services, flowers, and related items.

The term appears frequently in legal and insurance contexts: The policy covers funeral expenses up to ten thousand dollars.

Estate planners often earmark funds specifically for funeral expenses to spare survivors immediate financial burden.
