The Plot is Part of Laying a Loved One to Rest, so here is More Information on Them<\/strong><\/p>\n

Whether you have decided to preplan or a loved one has passed away, you will need to reach out to\u202ffuneral homes in Columbia, MD<\/a>, to get the details set. One of these details will be choosing a cemetery plot if the individual is choosing to have a traditional burial process. There are a few things to understand about this to help you make the right choice, so we have included the information here.<\/p>\n

Types of Plots\u202f<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are four main types of burial plots that you can choose from, including:<\/p>\n

Single<\/strong><\/p>\n

This size is exactly what it is called and is meant for one person only and is the most common plot you will find in a cemetery.<\/p>\n

Family<\/strong><\/p>\n

The next option is meant to be a space for multiple individuals and, in most cases, will be reserved for family members. In some cases, they may purchase a specific location inside the cemetery, which will be identified and, in some instances, enclosed. The area might have one large headstone with the family’s information, and the plots can be side by side in a row.<\/p>\n

Companion<\/strong><\/p>\n

If two individuals want to be buried next to each other, the companion plot is ideal. This is traditionally used for individuals or couples and is typically placed side by side. There’s also the option of having a double depth plot that is one ample space with the right caskets<\/a> stacked inside it.<\/p>\n

Plots for cremated remains\u202f<\/strong><\/p>\n

Burying cremated remains is also an option, and a standard plot is all that will be required for this.<\/p>\n

Costs<\/strong><\/p>\n

Depending on the location you choose to be buried, the prices will fluctuate. For a public cemetery, the cost will range between $200 and $2000, but this can vary depending on if the individual is being buried in a rural or urban area.<\/p>\n

A plot in a private cemetery can cost between 2000 and $5000 depending on the location, and they have gone up as high as $25,000 for a plot in a highly-populated area.<\/p>\n

A public cemetery for cremated remains will range between $350 to $500, and in a private cemetery, they can go between $1000 and $2500.<\/p>\n

Things to Consider<\/strong><\/p>\n

A few other things that will need to be considered are additional costs like purchasing the grave marker. Most private cemeteries will require the purchase of a burial vault or grave liner because these can help prevent the earth from falling in on the individuals buried there. There may also be paperwork fees and burial permits to be acquired to finalize the process.<\/p>\n
