The funeral director can give you a full list of what they can supply. They are likely to charge for these additional products and services, so you may choose to take care of some arrangements without their involvement, or you can use a different supplier.
* This fee (which is sometimes called the interment fee) is the charge made for digging and closing a new grave, or for reopning and closing an existing grave.
