Advantage Funeral & Cremation Services by Schoedinger–Hilltop occupies a unique position in Columbus's funeral landscape. The location traces its roots to Philip Schoedinger, who founded a casket-making company in 1855 after emigrating from Germany in 1829. The Schoedinger family established their first funeral home on West State Street in 1865, and later built what the site describes as one of Ohio's first purpose-built funeral chapels at 229 E. State St.—a structure whose belltower remains a city landmark.
The Hilltop location specifically evolved from this lineage: rebranded as Heart & Hope Funeral Home by Schoedinger in 2016, then becoming Advantage Funeral & Cremation Services by Schoedinger in 2022 when the family joined the Dignity Memorial network. The facility now operates at 3030 W Broad Street in Columbus's Hilltop neighborhood, offering what the site terms "simplified options and pricing for most every budget" through four standardized service tiers.
