Questions families ask
Answers use the figures on this page, not national averages.
Among 3 funeral homes serving Hot Springs with a checked price list, direct cremation runs from $1,645 to $2,095, with a median of $1,895. Each figure comes from that funeral home's own General Price List, and we checked it against that list on Oct 12, 2026. We list 13 funeral homes serving Hot Springs, and 3 of them have a price list we've checked so far.
The total adds these items from each funeral home's price list: direct cremation (alternative container). Cemetery or crematory fees charged by third parties, death certificates, and merchandise such as an urn or casket are extra unless a funeral home lists them.
No. Under the federal Funeral Rule (16 CFR Part 453) you have the right to choose only the goods and services you want, and every funeral home must give you an itemized General Price List. The packages here are a comparison aid built from those itemized prices, not something the funeral home sells as a bundle.
The biggest differences are the non-declinable basic services fee, whether the funeral home has its own crematory or uses a third party, and how far it will travel to collect the deceased before a mileage charge applies. Each funeral home's page shows all of these.
