What is the average price of a mausoleum?

Community mausoleums that accommodate one to two people generally cost between $3,000 and $10,000, as of 2015. However, prices can reach up to $30,000 for deluxe community mausoleums that accommodate two people.

Entombment fees, which are separate from mausoleum fees, usually cost between $500 and $2,000. Some cemeteries charge more for entombment on evenings, weekends and holidays.

Quality plays a crucial role in whether a mausoleum serves its purpose, which is to provide a clean, dry place for the corpses. Individuals should avoid hiring mausoleum-making companies that only entomb sealed caskets, since the rubber that comprises the seals can cause gas build-up and leaking.
