Can a funeral home refuse an outside casket?

A provider generally cannot refuse it or charge an extra handling fee simply because it was bought elsewhere. Have the provider provide a written line by line price breakdown, then confirm whether a stated requirement is imposed by law, by the cemetery, or only by the provider before you pay for it. For this funeral planning decision, cemetery rules and delivery timing should still be confirmed. For this funeral planning decision, consumers may generally purchase a casket or urn from an outside seller, and a funeral provider cannot charge a handling fee merely because the merchandise came from elsewhere.
