Funeral Costs

The cost of a funeral is a common concern. Because each funeral is different, it is very difficult to place a figure on the cost of a funeral.

Generally, a burial tends to be a little more expensive than a cremation due to the requirements involved. These requirements may be legal matters or may be the additional options such as the memorial chosen. However, this may not always be the case.

The venue of the funeral, and in some cases the funeral lunch or tea, may influence the price. Similarly, the officiant's fees or the fee charged by the funeral venue may influence the cost of one funeral compared with another.

Pre-payment funeral plans are welcomed from many organisations, and we can offer advice regarding the entering of the scheme if this is desired.

Following a funeral handled by Morley, Rhodes and Wainwright, you will be issued with a statement. This statement, issued some time after the funeral, will itemise each cost incurred during the funeral arranging process, enabling you to see the exact cost of the funeral at each stage rather than a total price.

We will be pleased to assist with any issues relating to your statement. We can also arrange payment options and often provide assistance to enable you to pay the account. Please feel free to telephone us at any time.
