Prices

All our funerals are bespoke and individually tailored, whether it be simple, eco/green, contemporary or traditional.

The choice is yours and we strongly believe that you should only pay for what you need or choose specifically.

Aaron Bewley and the Team will take you through all the options available to you,

and still encourage families to actively take part in not only organising of the funeral but where possible,

take as much part on the day of the funeral if they want.

We aim for our costs to be clear and transparent to you beforehand and are committed to providing affordable funerals that suit your budget.

Terms of Business

At the initial meeting, we will discuss all possible options available to you and their costs including any known disbursements (i.e. cremation fee etc). We will then provide a full breakdown of the estimated costs of the funeral, which will be emailed to you or a hard copy provided on request.

We require a 50% deposit of the estimated costs before the date of the funeral. Direct cremations and burials require payment in full before the funeral date.

The balance is due within 21 days of the date of the funeral.

We accept payment by bacs, credit or debit card.

We reserve the right to add interest at 1.5% compound per month on all accounts outstanding after the due date. All costs incurred in recovering an outstanding account are chargeable to the debtor.
