The coronavirus pandemic, which shackled the planet almost two years ago, is making adjustments to the plans of Russians. A dangerous infection directly threatens the lives of the population, and often takes it away. Thus, according to the Russian Ministry of Health, from January to December last year, mortality rates increased by almost 18% compared to the same period in 2019. This factor has become a logical reason for the increase in demand for the services of funeral agencies. Not surprisingly, the highest rates of both morbidity and mortality occur in Moscow. The capital also has some of the highest prices for funeral services.
According to the director of the Moscow funeral service “Ritual” Artem Efimov, who heads the main state operator of cemeteries and funeral organizer, burial services in the Russian capital cost an average of 135 thousand rubles.
“About 100-110 thousand rubles for agency services, for the coffin, hearse transport, wreaths. The burial itself, as well as cremation, costs about 35 thousand rubles. And this is not a mandatory minimum price, but the established average bill at the institution,” said Efimov.
At the same time, according to him, over the past year the cost of services of the state agency has not increased by much - within the limits of general inflation in the country. It is no secret that consumption in general is not a cheap service. You can save money, for example, by ordering the same wreath via the Internet.
In Moscow and the Moscow region this can be done on the website buy-wreath.rf
