| We
can provide an estimate of overall funeral expenses either in writing
or verbally over the telephone. Each client arranging a funeral will be
given a written estimate at the time of giving us instructions or as
soon as possible thereafter. Estimates will show our charges and also
any payments that we are required to make to third parties. These third
party payments (disbursements) relate to fees paid to Cemeteries,
Crematoria, Churches, Clergy, Organists, Doctors, Newspapers, Florists,
Airlines or any other organisation or persons.
Disbursements generally have to be paid in advance of the funeral taking place. In circumstances where we agree to advance these disbursements on behalf of our client, a surcharge will apply. DIRECT TRANSFER SERVICE In circumstances where there is to be no service, either religious or secular, and mourners will not be attending, we are able to offer the following service: collection of the deceased from a local hospital or mortuary, provision of a simple coffin with direct transfer to a local cemetery or crematorium. All charges and fees must be pre-paid. |
