Over the last several months, we have received a lot of questions, specifically from Carrollton residents, concerning their preneed contracts and funeral needs. I have answered several of those frequently asked questions below.

1. Do we accept preneed contracts from other funeral homes?

The short answer is yes; however, it is best to call and discuss your situation with one of our funeral directors so they can determine what you have and what it covers.

2. Can we have funerals in Carrollton?

Yes, we have and will continue to perform funerals wherever we are requested. If we do not have a funeral home in your town, we would typically have the funeral at a local church, community building, or a graveside service, but of course we could always use our funeral home in Brunswick.

3. How far would we travel to perform a funeral service?

The furthest we have traveled is 2 hours; however, the best policy is just to call and discuss your specific situation.

4. What types of payments do we accept?

We accept cash, checks, money orders, life insurance assignments, preneeds, and credit cards. It should be noted that credit cards come with a 3.5% surcharge. We currently do not accept payment plans. Sorry for the inconvenience.

5. When is the payment due?

The funeral home requires payment by the date of the service.

6. Who are the funeral directors?
