Funeral Costs
Every funeral is designed to meet individual requirements and selections, so the overall cost of the funeral will depend on your choices. We will always explain all the costs involved. An itemised quote is always given.
We are willing to help families consider their needs and expectations on a non-obligation basis. We at Australian Heritage Funerals warmly invite you to visit us or call us on 4634 9946 to discuss the costs further.
Based on these initial discussions we can give you an itemised quotation with all the costs and services associated with the funeral service you require. We encourage you to ask us to explain anything in the quotation which you do not understand.
Several elements are included in the main costs.
OUR PROFESSIONAL FEE:
Arranging, organising and conducting the funeral requires a team of trained and caring professionals. Our professional fee covers the many services and facilities that we provide to you and the deceased person. We do not charge "after hours" transfer fees of the decesed as do many other funeral homes. And there is no extra charge for transfers within 70klms of Toowoomba.
COFFIN OR CASKET:
We offer an extensive range of coffins or caskets which vary in price, from simple particle board and craftwood coffins through to highly finished solid timber and metal coffins and caskets.
CEMETERY OR CREMATORIUM FEES:
Selected items such as cremation or cemetery charges are always itemised and are set by the individual cemeteries and crematoriums.
OTHER EXPENSES:
A range of other items, such as flowers, funeral notices, clergy fees, organist or singer fees, death certificate, leaflets and the like, are paid by us on your behalf and included on the account for your convenience.
Usually, the person who made the funeral arrangements and authorised the funeral director to carry out the funeral arrangements is personally responsible for paying the funeral account.
The cost of a funeral varies considerably between the various funeral homes in this area, often by as much as several hundred dollars. Exercise your right to obtain clearly set out quotations and then compare.
We are proud of our reputation for providing the highest level of service and reliability over the years. You can be assured of our professional care and service always. In line with our policy of caring for families' needs, we provide dignified affordable funeral care.
