PROFESSIONAL SERVICE CHARGES

We are pleased to provide you with a full disclosure of our professional service charges when you visit our mortuary and memorial center or call.

To help you understand funeral costs we have prepared an outline of the categories that make up a funeral account. There are basically four sections that make up a funeral account: casket & merchandise selections, professional service charges, cash disbursements and taxes on applicable items.

To help consumers, legislation states that all mortuaries and memorial centers must provide an itemized price list of all of their related professional service charges as well as casket and merchandise charges. This list must be available at the consumers' request without cost or obligation. 

We pride ourselves on always being one of the most reasonably priced mortuaries and memorial centers in the area, although many expect our charges to be much higher given our level of professionalism and the premier quality of our facilities compared to many others. Inside our mortuary and memorial center, families and their friends are embraced by elegance and warmth. It is the genuine personalities of the staff that bring even the smallest details of the service that elevates Swartz Family Community Mortuary and Memorial Center to the new standard in funeral service. Consumers and families finally can learn first hand that there is a difference in the services we provide and they do not need to fall into the trap of traditional loyalty many mortuaries attempt to count on and discount pricing that some advertise.  We encourage you that when considering a funeral service provider to evaluate and see how our facilities, services, and pricing compare to others in the area and surrounding communities.  Today, being good is not good enough. We trust that this service will give you one more reason to give Swartz Family Community Mortuary and Memorial Center serious consideration when seeking a mortuary and memorial center that is pro-actively working towards providing you the highest standards of services and facilities while offering sensible and affordable solutions. 

CASH ADVANCE ITEMS

Cash advances are as they imply.

Strict legislation ensures that these items are not marked up and only the exact "cost" is included on the funeral account. Typical cash disbursements might include:

• Newspaper Notices
• Clergy Honorariums
• Cemetery Charges
• Certificates of Death
• Floral Arrangements

LIFE INSURANCE FILING

We will honor assignable insurance policies with assignments to be completed at the time of the arrangement conference. Swartz Family Community Mortuary and Memorial Center does not charge for this service.
