Funeral Prices : Do You Price Match or are Funeral Prices Fixed?
Today’s funeral question is one that we are often asked about funeral prices, is, “do your price match or are funeral prices fixed?” The answers are respectively yes and no. We do price match as long as it is for a like for like service that we’re being asked to match.
And in terms of the “No” No, each funeral director is entitled to set the prices that they choose for their services. However, recent legislation does require us to complete a template of like services for unattended cremations, attended cremations and a local burial. And these prices have to be displayed on our website, in our premises, and on our shop window. So that the public can see the differences in prices and charges between the funeral directors in the local area.

Planning a funeral, whether for a loved one or for yourself in advance, is one of the most personal decisions you’ll ever make. It’s also one that often has to be made quickly, and during a time of great emotional stress. That’s why it’s so important to feel confident that the funeral director you choose is the right fit for your family. As a family-run, independent funeral director with branches across West Kent and South East London, we understand how crucial trust, transparency and compassion are when supporting someone through loss. Here’s how to make sure you’re in safe hands from the very start.
As a local, independent, family-run funeral director, we know the importance of putting an empathetic, compassionate face to a name, and being able to build a rapport with your funeral director. This is why it is our pleasure to introduce Tonbridge locals to Rosanna Hayward, our passionate and committed funeral arranger, overseeing our Tonbridge operations.
