More and more people are realizing the advantages of pre-arranging their funerals. The process is simple and the benefit to loved ones left to handle the arrangements is well recognized. The benefits are numerous: pre-planning allows you to express your own wishes; there is a guaranteed funeral price; there's no income tax liability; your funeral plan is transferable in case you move away; it relieves your family of the financial burden.

The Six Common Reasons for Prearranging Funerals

Today, more individuals and families are making the decision to prearrange their funerals than ever before. Because of the factors such as inflation, fewer extended family members living close by, and other changes in our society, planning your own funeral can make a lot of sense.

In a recent survey, these were the most common reasons people gave for prearranging their own funerals:

1. Communicates your wishes
2. Reduces stress for friends and family at an already emotional time
3. Saves money
4. It may guarantee your family will never have to pay more for your funeral — no matter what happens with inflation
5. Shows you care
6. Relieves your loved ones of the financial responsibility

Any one of those reasons is good, but when you take them all together, it’s easy to see why pre-planning your funeral is one of the smartest things you can do.
