Payment Schedule

PAYMENT SCHEDULE

At the time of need, when the next of kin meet with the funeral director to arrange the funeral service, the funeral service contract will be written by the funeral director. This contract will show the requested type of funeral service itemized to adhere to the family's wishes, selected funeral supplies, GST on services and supplies and an estimated total of outside costs (disbursements).

Two copies of the contract will be printed, dated and signed by the both the person responsible for making arrangements -named on the contract as the purchaser- and the funeral director. One copy will be presented to the purchaser and the other will be retained by the funeral home.

The Andrew L. Hodges Funeral Home does not require a deposit at the time of arrangement unless the family wishes to do so.

Following the funeral, a finalized account, with the exact amount of outside costs, will be presented to the purchaser and payment will be required within 40 days of the signing of the funeral service contract.

If more time is required to complete payment, a payment plan can be worked out at the time of arrangement or during the 40 day grace period.

If the purchaser does not indicate that a payment plan is necessary at the time of signing the funeral service contract or during the 40 day grace period, which passes without completing payment, the Andrew L. Hodges Funeral Home Ltd. will attempt to contact the purchaser by phone and/or mail. If there is no response or payment, the funeral home will charge interest on any overdue amount at the rate of 15% per month until the date of payment in full.
