Coffin Prices

Did you ever wonder why coffins prices vary from one merchant to another? There are different reasons and causes for this. Prices of coffins can baffle anyone especially when they are seeking for least expensive options. When one loses a dearest family member, the very first thing that must be addressed is to find a suitable burial vessel. This can either be a coffin, casket or an urn. Coffins have long been considered as the most traditional funeral vessel and is widely accepted by various countries all throughout the globe. When you are about to choose a coffin, you must take a look at your budget first and try to consider if you can get an expensive one or not.

Coffins are made from different materials in which they are made. First type is the metal coffin. These are sold in gauge and the least expensive option is the one that has the highest gauge. The thickest metal has the lowest gauge. There are typically 16, 18 and 20 gauge coffins. This also applies to caskets which has the same aforementioned gauges. There is also a stainless steel coffin where most of the manufacturers will market stainless steel coffins prices made from steel, chromium and carbon.

Typically there are two types, 300 and 400 series and the former one has better manufacturing quality compared to the latter. There are also copper and bronze type of coffins which both of these variants are sold either in 48 oz and 32 oz per sq foot. 


When basing the different types of materials that coffins were made, you will understand which product costs the least and which product has topnotch quality. The least expensive coffin is that of 20 gauge while the one with the best and highest quality is 48 oz bronze.  

If there are metal based coffin products, there are those made from wood too. Solid hardwood coffins are known to be the best one and also costs higher compared to other wooden variants. The variant would depend on the species of the wood which it is made from. If you would visit a funeral merchant, you can always observe the availability of coffins made from oak, walnut and and mahogany. These kinds of wood are durable and can last longer.
               
If you are looking for a coffin product, be sure to find a merchant that can serve your queries and give you the best coffin product there is. Remember that there are fraudulent offers or scammers out there that claim to give the best product for you. Ask for referrals when searching for a merchant, that way you are getting much more than what you are about to shell out.
