There are numerous steps when arranging a funeral service, whether it’s preparation for burial or entombment. These include, but are not limited to:

Obtain a Burial Certificate – Law requires a burial permit to be procured by next of kin, typically via a licensed funeral director or through the local Vital Records or Birth and Death Registration office. Usually, a nominal fee is charged to acquire a burial permit.
Select a Burial Site – Oftentimes, the deceased will have either orally requested a burial site before death, or even have written such a request in a will.
Transport Deceased to Burial Site – This can be accomplished through a mortuary or special car service, typically in the form of the traditional hearse. There is usually an additional charge associated with transporting the deceased.
Opening and Closing of Gravesite – This must be arranged with the cemetery ahead of time, and there’s typically a fee associated with both the opening and closing of the grave.
Purchasing a Burial Vault of Liner – Burial vaults, or liners, encapsulate the walls of a casket and prevent the surrounding earth from collapsing the casket over time. Typically, these aren’t usually required by law, but often mandatory at most cemeteries, as it helps with site maintenance.
Select a Monument or Grave Marker – It is customary, and sometimes required by cemeteries, to purchase and place a headstone, tombstone or memorial marker at the gravesite for identification.
