Water cremation (alkaline hydrolysis)

Legal in Minnesota. Water cremation (alkaline hydrolysis) is a more environmentally gentle alternative to flame cremation. Pricing is similar to flame cremation. Ask local providers if it’s offered — not every funeral home has it yet.

Human composting (natural organic reduction)

Not legal in Minnesota as of 2026. A growing number of states have legalized natural organic reduction; if it matters to you, you would currently need to use a provider in a legal state (the body is shipped, transformed, and the soil is returned).

FTC Funeral Rule (federal) applies in Minnesota

All federal funeral consumer rights apply equally in every state. Full breakdown.

1. Pick three homes from the list above (mix at least one independent and one chain — Dignity Memorial / SCI, Carriage, Park Lawn — if both exist near you).
2. Call each one and ask: “Could you email me a copy of your General Price List?” They are required to send it.
3. Compare line by line. Basic services fee. Embalming. Transportation. Casket markup. Direct cremation. Immediate burial. Facility rental.
4. Bring the GPLs to your chosen home. Ask them to price-match the cheapest. Many will.
