What We Offer

We offer a streamlined, transparent, and respectful farewell option that guarantees cost efficiency without compromising care or professionalism. Our approach realigns expenses, providing a clear and affordable alternative to traditional services.

Instead of allocating a substantial portion of costs to expensive materials, we focus on sustainable and environmentally responsible options. This helps minimise financial burdens and reduces our overall environmental impact.

1. We'll transfer your loved one

We’ll transfer your loved one into our care from anywhere in New South Wales or Australian Capital Territory, without delay to one of our care facilities.

2. We'll take care of the cremation

Our experienced funeral arrangers will handle the cremation service with compassion, using an environmentally-friendly coffin.

3. We'll look after all the paperwork

We’ll liaise with the nominated facility and assist with all the administrative paperwork to process the official death certificate required for estate administration, sent directly to you.

4. We'll return your loved one's ashes

Your loved one’s ashes will be returned to you promptly, as nominated by you, after the service has occurred so you can say goodbye your own way.
