The Pre-Need Trust Plan

Since mortality faces us all, the importance of our Pre-Need Trust Plan and Registration Plan should be emphasized. Pre-need arrangements spare survivors the burden of having to make decisions and incurring expenses on your behalf during their time of grief. Most important, pre-need arrangements ensure that your wishes are fulfilled, because you have left your desires in writing. There are no enrollment or membership fees for either plan, and Pacific Interment makes it easy for you to complete these arrangements by phone or online, if you wish.

The Pre-Need Trust Plan guarantees the disposition services you select at today's cost. Payment for your pre-need arrangements is deposited in a federally insured savings and loan institution or the California Master Trust®, as required by the State of California Department of Consumer Affairs Board of Funeral Directors. If, for some reason, you choose to cancel your trust plan, your initial deposit and accumulated interest will be returned to you. Note: We will not be responsible for bank imposed withdrawal penalties.

As an alternative to our Pre-Need Trust Plan you may choose to participate in our Registration Plan. In this plan, your instructions for your funeral arrangements are carefully recorded and all forms and releases are signed in advance. However, there is no price guarantee for this plan. Your survivors pay all costs at the time of your death.

Once again, there are no enrollment or membership fees for either plan. To set up a Registration or Pre-Need Trust Plan, go to our Forms page for instructions, or simply call us today, and relax in the peace of mind of knowing that these arrangements have been settled.
