Burial Services

Our Burial Services in Mars Hill

Our burial service packages differ based on the type of ceremony you would like to have along with the actual burial. We are fairly flexible in terms of the type of funeral ceremony you can have with the burial. Below we highlight our most popular burial packages.  

Direct Burial

This is the simplest type of burial service we offer. It does not involve any type of funeral service or ceremony. Essentially, the fees cover the transportation of the body, casketing of the body, the actual burial, and the completion of the appropriate paperwork.   

Graveside Service

This burial package includes everything that comes with the direct burial package plus the arrangement of a ceremony at the cemetery which can be supervised by our funeral directors if you would like.  

Traditional Funeral Service

This burial service package involves the most components. It includes a wake/visitation, a traditional funeral that usually takes place at a church, and a procession to the cemetery where the deceased is given a final goodbye. Families also sometimes choose to hold a reception as a final stage of the funeral service.


Whether it was expected or not, losing a loved one is something that is never easy. At Blue Ridge Funeral & Cremation Service, we are here to help families through these difficult times with loving funeral service packages. Rather than spending time stressing over funeral arrangements, we aim to make the planning process simple and straightforward. Under the guidance of our caring and experienced funeral directors, we can help you arrange a funeral and burial service that honors your loved one and allows your family to say a meaningful goodbye.

Burial is one of the oldest ways that we have cared for the remains of the deceased. Dating back over 100,000 years, it is the most traditional end-of-life care option.
