<<Just order a "simple cremation" and specify a cardboard coffin (since it will be burned up anyway). That should run well under $1,000 (which is, of course, extravagant given the actual labor and energy>>
Remember to ask for a discount if that is a burned victim or having a high fat content.

T, I thought this was why we had backyards. It makes the plants grow better and you can still cash the Social Security checks. <g>

"should run well under $1000..."
But my friend had to pay $934.00. His mother died at an advanced age in the hospital. She had it written that her body was to be donated to medical science. The funeral home charged the amount to transport the body from the hospital to the institution 14 miles away.
