Silkwood Funerals is a family-owned company that understands that losing a loved one is never easy. That’s why they tailor their services to guide the bereaved gently throughout the process.

After contacting the service, Silkwood will help you handle the paperwork, including death certificate processing and cemetery arrangements. They will also assist in securing other funeral necessities such as flowers, musicians, and coffins.

We’re most impressed by the company’s thoughtful inclusion of its music catalog on its website. Clients seeing the catalog beforehand will allow them to come up with a meaningful program centered around a personalized and spot-on musical setlist.

We would have loved it more had the company included more information online, such as basic fees and details about prepaid funerals, as it makes shopping around more convenient. 

You can’t also visit a physical office, as the company doesn’t offer an address. 

Thankfully, their office is open 24 hours so you’ll have many chances to reach them via phone. The funeral director will also come to you to discuss the funeral details if necessary.

We appreciate funeral services that are honest and upfront with their pricing like Perth Cremations and Burials. 

The company has a broad range of services, and they make selection much easier for clients by indicating the price for each funeral package. We also appreciate that they offer 10% discounts for those who can pay by the burial date.

The funeral service also encourages prepaid funerals. Having the service paid for in advance will lift some burden off the bereaved, making it a more preferred choice to some clients. 

Add to that the fact that the company doesn’t charge hidden fees, so your advanced payments will be in good hands.

However, you should take note that the discounts don’t apply to Perth Cremations and Burials’ extra services. One of those services is preparing the body of the deceased for viewing, which can cost about $2,000 to $3,000 overall.

The funeral office is also based in a suburb, which can result in some inconveniences if you need to visit them in person.

If the will of the deceased and your customs allow it, cremation followed by a memorial service is another ideal way to say goodbye to a loved one. 

Bare Cremation is one of the companies that employ cremation-first memorials. This setup means the deceased will be cremated within the standard period but the memorial service to honor them can be arranged at a schedule the bereaved prefers. 

We appreciate this kind of system, as it can help reduce a bit of the stress associated with planning a memorial service. After all, the loved ones of the deceased can have more preparation time.

We also like that you have three options to pick from when working with Bare. You can choose only the cremation service or add the memorial package, and you get to also see the base price for both services online. 

We also love that the company offers to help you create your last will or aid you in arranging a grant of probate. These extra services are perfect for people who want to be prepared for everything in the future.

Of course, the prices may become a bit expensive if you choose to customize the memorial service they offer. 

The funeral service is also a bit far from the main city, so visiting might be a problem for some clients.

If you prefer a senior service provider, Hetherington Funerals is the ideal company to contact.

Not only was it established way back in 1999, but the company also offers a wide range of funeral services to cater to various preferences and customs. We particularly love their eco funerals, as it’s perfect for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint. 

The company also has a broad selection of urns and coffins, so you won’t want for choices. The most popular products are also posted on the company’s website for convenient purchase. 

Their quote request form is also comprehensive, so you’re saved from the trouble of itemizing every detail.

But since you need to request a quote, Hetherington doesn’t post their prices on their website, which can be a bit of a hassle for clients who need to compare fees quickly.

Also, the funeral office is closed during weekends, so visiting them is limited. Thankfully, their lines are still open 24/7 to make room for after-hour inquiries. 

With over 20 years of industry experience, Funeralcare is yet another company that clients can count on during difficult times. 

The family-owned business offers cremation, burial, and memorial services, giving customers more options on how to hold the funeral for their deceased loved one.

We most appreciate Funeralcare’s repatriation services. Losing a loved one while they’re far from home is painful, so assistance like this is often welcomed by grieving clients. 

Take note that the company specializes in only a few countries, including New Zealand, India, Pakistan, and Bhutan, so your options might be limited.

We also love how easy it is to fill out the company’s quote request form. 

The said channel can be used in a lot of ways, including a simple query, which can be preferable to some people who are only looking around but don’t need the services yet.

That said, you won’t get to decide quickly whether to hire them or not based on price, as Funeralcare doesn’t put up its fees online.
