Services
All pricing effective October 6, 2025 and subject to change without notice. Payment required prior to services unless pre-need arrangements established. Company does not offer payment plans or financing; accepts cash, checks, and most major credit cards.
The company's service philosophy centers on minimal intervention and maximum transparency, with families empowered to select only required components and supply their own caskets or containers without penalty.
Affordable Funeral Alternative operates as an immediate disposition company licensed under Oregon Administrative Rule 830-030-0008, serving families within a 30-mile radius of Gresham. The business positions itself as a family-owned and operated alternative to traditional funeral homes, with a stated focus on reducing costs by eliminating services like viewing, visitation, and embalming that Oregon law prohibits for this license type.
The company operates by appointment only at its Gresham location, with staff available 24 hours for death calls. Its service model centers on transparency: families select only the items they want, with all charges itemized on written statements. The business accepts cash, checks, and most major credit cards, with payment expected prior to services unless pre-need arrangements are established.
Unlike full-service funeral homes, Affordable Funeral Alternative does not maintain on-site viewing facilities or employ embalming services. This operational structure allows the company to offer direct cremation starting at $755—among the lowest advertised rates in the Portland metro area—and immediate burial from $785.
