Frequently Asked Questions — Maryland Funeral Costs
What is the average cost of a funeral in Maryland?
Funeral costs in Maryland vary by city, service type, and funeral home. Use the city table above to find pricing in your area.
What is the cheapest funeral option in Maryland?
Direct cremation is consistently the least expensive funeral option in Maryland. It involves cremation shortly after death without embalming, viewing, or a formal funeral service. The ashes are returned to the family. Many families then hold a separate memorial service at a time and place of their choosing.
Are funeral prices regulated in Maryland?
The FTC Funeral Rule requires all funeral homes in the United States — including Maryland — to provide itemized price lists upon request. This means you can call any funeral home and ask for their General Price List (GPL) before committing to any services. Always get prices in writing and compare multiple funeral homes.
