Located at 237 Route 7 South, the facility is designed with accessibility in mind, featuring a wheelchair-accessible entrance and parking. With an outstanding 4.9-star rating based on over 116 reviews, the center has earned a reputation for compassionate, personalized care.

The business distinguishes itself through several unique offerings. It is the only funeral home in Chittenden County with an on-site traditional crematory, ensuring that a loved one never leaves the facility during the cremation process. Additionally, Minor Funeral and Cremation Center is the first and only provider in Vermont to offer water alkaline hydrolysis, marketed as Fireless Cremation, which is the only such service in all of New England. For families choosing cremation, the on-site crematory allows for a full funeral service with visitation where the deceased is physically present, followed by a catered meal in the designated events center—cremated remains can be ready by the end of the meal.

The center provides a comprehensive range of services, including traditional funerals, cremation services, personalized celebrations of life, burial services, and preplanning with a price guarantee that locks in today's prices for future services. The staff goes beyond standard expectations, assisting families with tasks such as filing life insurance claims to ease their burden during difficult times. All licensed staff members hold associate degrees and are qualified funeral directors and embalmers, maintaining high industry standards.

Minor Funeral and Cremation Center serves families of all religious backgrounds and has experience arranging Catholic, Jewish, and other faith-based services. The facility is open 24/7 to respond to immediate needs, and the website features current obituaries, grief support resources, and a subscription service for obituary alerts. The business is locally owned and operated, contrasting with corporate-owned firms, and is committed to exceeding expectations through personalized, affordable end-of-life care. Families are invited to tour the warm, inviting facility and meet the dedicated team.
