Our funeral cost calculator is an interactive and transparent tool that puts you in control and empowers you to make informed decisions. It’s not just a list of prices; it’s a way to explore your options and understand the financial implications of each choice.
Use our Funeral Cost Calculator and get:
- A Clear Breakdown of Costs: A funeral has three main types of costs: our professional service fees, third party costs that are known as ‘disbursements’, and additional costs for any extras you choose to personalise the funeral. Our funeral cost calculator clearly separates these so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
- Our Professional Fees cover all of our services, including our team’s time, the use of our facilities, the provision of a coffin and hearse, and the meticulous care of your loved one.
- Disbursements are third-party fees that we pay on your behalf. These are costs outside of our control, such as fees for the crematorium or cemetery, the minister or celebrant, and the doctor’s fees for cremation. Our calculator provides an estimated amount for these so you have a complete picture.
- Additional extras. These can be additional services or items that you choose to personalise the funeral. This might be an alternative coffin or hearse, or a limousine to transport mourners. As well as flowers, orders of service sheets and webcasting.
- Real-Time Transparency: As you navigate through the options, from cremation or burial to the choice of a coffin or a hearse, the calculator shows you the price of each item you choose, and instantly updates the total cost. This means you are always aware of where the money is going and why.
- Empowering You to Plan: The best way to manage costs is to plan them. Our funeral costs calculator allows you to consider different options – a fully personalised funeral versus something simpler, or even a very simple attended service versus an unattended direct cremation. You can see how each choice affects the final price. This is a vital step in allowing you to make decisions that are right for you and your family, both emotionally and financially.
- A Starting Point for Discussion: The calculator provides a clear, itemised summary of your chosen funeral. This report is an excellent resource to share with family members, helping to facilitate open and honest conversations about final wishes and financial contributions, avoiding confusion and stress down the line.
Our funeral costs calculator was created to help families who need to arrange a funeral now, or in the next few weeks. But it can be used to plan ahead for funeral costs.
The Benefits of Planning Funeral Costs
Our funeral cost calculator helps you to understand funeral costs, and with this knowledge you can plan ahead and make financial provision. Planning funeral costs in advance, whether for yourself or a loved one, offers significant peace of mind.
- Provides Financial Certainty: Funeral costs can be a significant expense.
