How Arizona Cremation Pricing Stacks Up
Direct cremation in Arizona typically runs $1,500–$3,000. Our $895 package is roughly 40–70% below that range — and unlike many providers in the low end of that band, we’re a licensed, family-owned funeral home with our own crematory you can tour.
Arizona’s Best Cremation Value — Without the Trade-offs
A Wise Choice is the low-cost brand of the Bunker family of funeral homes — the same family that owns Bunker Family Funerals & Cremation and Gilbert Memorial Park Funeral Home & Cemetery. Same ownership. Same licensed staff. Same crematory in Mesa.
The difference is the service model. We focus exclusively on direct cremation and straightforward burial, which lets us run lean and pass the savings to families who don’t need a full traditional service. You get the experience of a 60-year funeral home operator — not a price-only shop that subcontracts the work. We invite you to tour our facility, meet our staff, and see the crematory yourself before you decide. That’s something most of our competitors at this price point can’t offer.
We Own and Operate Our Own Crematory
Most low-cost cremation providers subcontract the actual cremation to a third party. We don’t. Your loved one never leaves our care — from the moment we bring them into our facility through the return of their cremated remains. Every step happens under the supervision of our licensed staff. Our East Valley Crematory is located in Downtown Mesa.
TOUR OUR CREMATORY60+ Years of Family-Owned Funeral Service
A Wise Choice is owned and operated by the Bunker Family — the same family behind Bunker Family Funerals & Cremation and Gilbert Memorial Park. We’ve served Arizona families for more than 60 years, and our staff carries the licensing, training, and experience that comes with that history. Low cost, full credentials.
MEET OUR STAFFBeautiful, Flexible Gathering Spaces
Our chapel and reception center was built for moments like this. Soaring wood-arch ceilings, warm natural stone, and a room that seats up to 100 — a setting worthy of the person you're honoring. Use it however feels right: an intimate family gathering, a catered reception, a standing-room service, or something entirely your own.
