£925 plus cremation fee £1450 plus Doctors' fees £1597
Payment due when making arrangements (see payment terms)
Allows for additional options such as collection from a nursing home, funeral cortege from a church or another location before the crematorium, choice of crematorium and the option of a limousine.
£1225 plus cremation fee from £1750 plus Doctors' fees from £1897
Payment due when making arrangements (see payment terms)
Provides a simpler service that still includes all funeral arrangements, collection of deceased and our oak style coffin, but dispenses with the formality of the hearse arriving at the crematorium. Instead the coffin is delivered to the crematorium beforehand and will be in place for the start of the service.

Payment due when making arrangements (see payment terms)
Our lowest cost option has also been designed to fit with DWP Funeral Payments. With this service all the funeral arrangements are made by phone, post and online. We will collect the deceased as normal, provide our oak style coffin, and on the day of the funeral, the coffin will be in place for the start of the service at the crematorium.
