City of Oaks Funeral Home & Cremations

City of Oaks Cremation provides affordable cremation, burial, and funeral services to the residents of Raleigh and beyond. We understand that reaching out to a funeral home can be overwhelming, which is why we strive to simplify the entire process for you.

At City of Oaks, we believe in practical and affordable solutions. We aim to eliminate any unnecessary surprises by transparently publishing our total costs and services directly on our website. This gesture is our way of providing your family with peace of mind during this difficult time.

As a full-service funeral home, we offer direct cremation, immediate burial, and affordable traditional funeral services. Our prices already include all additional costs such as the alternative container, Certified Death Certificates, NC Sales Tax, and any other fees. Transparency is important to us and has even caught the attention of Raleigh news station WRAL.

If you find any of our services less expensive on a current General Price List provided by another licensed funeral home in Wake County, NC, we will match the cost of that item and discount it by an additional 10%.

For those looking for a simple and reliable option, our direct cremation service is available at a price of $1196.75. Rest assured, there are no hidden charges here - everything you need is included. We have maintained the same cost for our direct cremation service since our establishment in 2012.

If you desire an affordable cremation option with onsite visitation, our Cremation with Visitation service is priced at $1917.84. Again, there are no surprise costs added at the last minute - we guarantee transparency and affordability.

For those opting for an immediate burial, we offer this service for $2497.50. This option allows you to save money by eliminating some of the extra services typically associated with burials.

Our Traditional Funeral service, costing $5866.98, provides the same services as the bigger corporate funeral homes in the area but at about half the price. Whether you prefer an open casket visitation, a traditional church service, or a service in our chapel, we can tailor the traditional funeral to meet your family's needs.

If environmental sustainability is important to you and your loved one, we also offer Green Burial services. We meet the criteria set by the Green Burial Council and provide funeral services without the use of toxic and non-biodegradable materials/chemicals.

Additionally, City of Oaks Funeral Home offers Aquamation as an alternative to traditional cremation. Aquamation, also known as alkaline hydrolysis, utilizes a water and potassium hydroxide solution to facilitate natural decomposition.

Rest assured, we operate within the same regulations and laws as the big corporate funeral homes. We are regulated by the NC Board of Funeral Service and all crematories in North Carolina, regardless of ownership, are inspected annually.

At City of Oaks, we pride ourselves on providing genuine care to our community. We offer unsurpassed service before, during, and after the time of loss. Our staff will communicate clearly with your family throughout each step of the process, treating you with the utmost respect and honoring the wishes of your loved one. Our promise is to make this process affordable and as endurable as possible.

While our funeral home is located in Wake County, NC, we proudly provide our services to families throughout the entire state. Unlike other funeral homes, we do not charge additional mileage fees. Simple and affordable funeral arrangements can be made regardless of your county, from Asheville to Wilmington.

Our all-inclusive, low-cost approach appeals to families who prioritize practicality, environmental consciousness, and economic soundness. We provide each family with a Licensed Funeral Director who will work with you from start to finish. Our compassionate team is experienced in handling a wide range of cultures, religions, and economic backgrounds.

Please note that our onsite memorial services, visitations, funeral services, and religious services are limited to a maximum of 44 individuals in attendance. Due to the capacity limit, all services held onsite must be private and unadvertised.
