Price Transparency in St. Louis

Funeral and cremation prices can vary by provider and by what is included. Lantern is building provider-level price research so families can compare published information more easily.

A quoted direct-cremation price may not include every third-party charge or circumstance-specific service. Before making arrangements, confirm the provider's current General Price List, transportation limits, required authorizations, cash-advance items, and any other applicable charges.

Lantern will label researched prices with their source and date checked as that dataset is verified. Unverified template prices should not be treated as provider offers.
