Frequently Asked Questions — Texas Funeral Costs
What is the average cost of a funeral in Texas?
The average cost of a traditional funeral in Texas is $9,270, which includes the funeral home's basic services fee, embalming, viewing, funeral ceremony, and burial. Direct cremation is significantly less expensive. Costs vary by city and funeral home.

Are funeral prices regulated in Texas?

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.
