About Green Acres Mortuary & Cemetery

Green Acres Mortuary & Cemetery in Scottsdale is part of Service Corporation International (SCI), the largest corporate funeral chain in North America, operating under the Dignity Memorial brand; no independent founding history is available, though the Dignity Memorial network offers transferable pre-need contracts and standardized service structures across its locations. The facility offers a broad range of services including direct cremation, traditional burial, veterans honors, Celebration of Life events, and specialty options such as spaceflight interment and scattering at sea, with the added convenience of an on-site cemetery so families can manage funeral and burial arrangements in one place. Direct cremation starts at $2,695 and immediate burial packages begin at $4,075, but a non-optional basic services fee of $3,435 applies to nearly every arrangement, pushing total costs meaningfully higher than headline figures suggest, placing this provider in the mid-range to premium tier for the Scottsdale market. The funeral home holds a strong 4.8 out of 5 rating across 281 Google reviews, with families frequently praising specific staff members for attentiveness and compassion during arrangements; one recent lower-rated review raised concerns about a pre-need sales interaction, and families considering pre-planning may want to request fully itemized written quotes before committing, as high-pressure sales tactics have been a documented concern at SCI-affiliated properties more broadly.

I met with Todd Dobbs, one of the Family Support Sales staff in April 2025. I was seeking a niche for my mother's urn and my pre-need burial arrangements for my direct cremation and my urn. I needed to research the costs, and how to go about making a burial selection before I needed one. I have no…

Been visiting my grandma here for years, and now, mom is right beside her! Staff was polite, considerate, and acted with grace when laying my mother to rest recently! The garden is pretty and it is a peaceful place! See you soon!
