Every funeral is a personal choice, we arrange each funeral to meet today’s requests built on the traditions we have offered over many years.

Here are some suggestions and cost indicators to assist in your decision making.

Non-attended funeral

For families who choose not to have a service or may not wish to attend a funeral, this is a very simple, low cost arrangement.

What’s included:

Professional services
A meeting in our office to arrange all necessary documentation including advice on registration
Liaising with hospital, doctor or coroner as necessary.
Collection of deceased within a 20mile radius of our office during normal working hours Monday to Friday 9am – 5pm, should it be necessary outside of these times it will incur an addition of £130.00.
Care of deceased until time of cremation
Simple wood effect coffin suitable for cremation including name plate.
Transfer of deceased in a suitable vehicle (may not be a hearse) to Pure Crematorium at a time and date arranged by us.
Return of cremated remains to our office in a crematorium container ready for collection by the person arranging the funeral.

The non-attended cremation service costs £1100.00 including disbursements.

Should it be desirable for the cremation to take place at West Suffolk Crematorium an addition of £680.00 will be added.

This arrangement may only suit those who prefer a non-attended funeral, however we can discuss any alterations you may require, such as dressing in own clothes.

Whilst this is a low cost arrangement our normal high level of care will always be paramount.
