Cremation costs in Oceanside vary based on the services you select. Direct cremation, which includes basic professional services, transportation, and the cremation process itself, is typically the most economical option. Cremation with a memorial service or viewing will include additional costs for facility use, staff services, and preparation. At Alhiser-Comer Mortuary, we provide transparent pricing and work with families to create arrangements that fit their budget while honoring their loved one appropriately. We encourage you to contact us for detailed pricing information specific to your needs.

After cremation, the cremated remains are carefully processed and placed in either a temporary container or an urn of your selection. You may choose to keep the urn at home, inter it in a cemetery plot or columbarium niche, scatter the remains in a meaningful location (following local regulations), or divide them among family members using keepsake urns. Our staff can assist with arrangements for burial at Oceanside cemeteries, coordinate scattering services, or provide information about memorial options. We ensure you understand all available choices and help facilitate whatever decision brings your family comfort and closure.
