Funeral Costs
We honestly believe that as a small, family run, funeral service we are in the best position to offer families the very best possible service, while keeping costs as low as possible. As we do not have shareholders and we are not part of a larger group we simply do not need to charge the over inflated prices you are likely to find elsewhere.
Funeral costs are made up of two parts. Firstly, the price of the services provided by the Funeral Director and secondly, the disbursements. Disbursements are fees paid before the funeral on the family’s behalf. These include things like Cremation fee, Church fees and doctor’s fees. Please note, the disbursements are the same regardless of which funeral directors you use and should always be charged “at cost”.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED FROM US
(EXCLUDING DISBURSEMENTS)
£1850
Rather than giving an itemised list of the many different costs involved with a funeral, we prefer to quote one figure which includes everything you can expect from us. This includes everything from collecting your loved ones from the place where they die, right through to the hearse and staff who attend on the day of the funeral. This figure also includes a quality oak veneered coffin and unlimited use of our Chapel of Rest (including evenings and weekends by arrangement).
