Plan ahead. Protect your family from guessing — and overpaying.
When the time comes, someone you love will answer 25 questions in a single afternoon — and the same cremation is published at $795 at one Atlanta funeral home and $4,160 at another. This free guide settles both, calmly, in about an hour.
What’s inside
- The 25 decisions — every question a funeral director will ask, in plain English, with space to record your wishes
- Real Atlanta prices — what direct cremation, cremation with a service, and traditional funerals actually cost across 61 metro providers
- Veterans benefits checklist — what you or your spouse may have already earned, and the documents that unlock it
- The document locator — one page that tells your family where everything is, so nobody searches drawers on their hardest day
Common questions
Is the guide really free?
Yes. The guide, the price data, and Fairwell’s comparison service are free for families. Fairwell is supported by referral agreements with funeral homes, disclosed on every page — never by charging families.
Is this a preneed contract or insurance?
No. Fairwell does not sell preneed contracts, funeral insurance, or any financial product. The guide is a planning workbook: your wishes, real local prices, and the documents your family would need.
Why do prices differ so much between funeral homes?
The same direct cremation is published at $795 at one Atlanta-metro funeral home and $4,160 at another — a 5.2x spread for the same service. Most families never see a second price. Under the FTC Funeral Rule, every funeral home must quote prices by phone.
What happens after I download it?
Nothing, unless you ask. There is no sales call and no follow-up unless you request one. If you want help comparing or negotiating prices, Fairwell’s concierge service is free to use whenever you choose.
