about the lowest you can go is Pine box and it would run a minimum of 3 grand but this really depends on where you live. For example, in Ca. it can easily run more than 10 grand but the same funeral in Montana will cost about 6 grand. There are usually insurances and state funds that can assist with expenses if you need.
I used to work in a mortuary.

The average cost today is about $10,000. Here's a link:

My mother's funeral in 1983, was $8,000. That was very expensive back then.
