About Birnbaum Funeral Service Inc

Birnbaum Funeral Service Inc is an independently owned funeral home serving the Syracuse, NY area. As a full-service provider, they are equipped to handle a range of arrangements, though specific details about services such as pre-planning, veterans' assistance, or cremation packages beyond direct cremation are not available here. Their direct cremation starting price of $2,125 is a useful reference point for families considering that option, though without broader local pricing data it is difficult to place them firmly within the budget, mid-range, or premium tier for the Syracuse market. With a Google rating of 3.0 stars based on only 4 reviews, there is not enough feedback to draw reliable conclusions about the customer experience, so families may want to speak directly with the funeral home or seek additional references before making a decision.

Joel and staff were caring, empathetic and really easy to work with. I’m grateful for them and how they handled our loved one. Thank you for all you’ve done.

Absolute worst funeral home I have ever experienced. If you have family or friends that are planning to attend a service via livestream (as they promise they offer) DO NOT RELY ON THEM to provide this (their internet is not compatible). Myself and many others were absolutely heartbroken when on th…

Joel couldn't have been nicer, more sympathetic, or professional. He anticipated our needs and wants, arranged everything and made a difficult time as smooth as it could possibly be. He is everything a funeral director should be and more. I highly recommend him and Birnbaum Funeral Services. They ha…

Will not recommend. Hardly ever has business (which is probably good considering the sector of business), but the funeral director isn't friendly or empathic, and is rather confrontational. Would recommend going elsewhere for funeral services in your time of need.
