Pre-Need Planning

Consider Us as an Investment You Make for Your Family

Preplanning is something you do for your family. Making decisions in advance spares your loved ones from making them at an emotionally charged time.  By preplanning, the choice is yours, as personal as you wish, made with us in total confidence -- without pressure.

Although not required when making pre-arrangements, most people choose to set aside funds that will cover their future funeral expenses. We offer a variety of pre-payment programs. Pre-paying these expenses allows you to control cost and avoid emotional overspending.

Making pre-arrangements can be as involved or as simple as you wish them to be. You can make a selection of the type of service, casket, music, and any additional requests you may have or you can simply give only the biographical information that will be needed for notification of newspapers, legal forms, etc.

Once your pre-arrangements are made and on file, when the time of need arises, a call to our funeral home will enable us to proceed with what you have planned. If you would like to begin the pre arrangement process fill out the on-line information form and additional forms will be sent to you by mail. 

Right now, in the privacy of your home, you can:

  • Record the statistical information about yourself and your family so that your loved ones will not face this painful task while they are grieving.
  • Write your own obituary

You can choose to only record the items that you wish, and we will keep this information on file at Cremation Society of NJ, and you may add to it, update it, or come in and complete your pre-planning at your convenience.

Most prearrangements are transferable!
While you did the right thing by making funeral arrangements in advance, you may have changed your mind on the funeral home you selected. 

If you have questions about any of our pre-planning or about any of our services, feel free to call us at 800-833-2843 or email us at info@cremationnj.com.
