Making the right choice of coffin and caskets

From extravagant to environmentally friendly, we offer a wide range of coffins and caskets for the funeral for your loved one

Whether you are planning a burial or cremation, we can supply a wide range of coffins or caskets. We understand that for some people it can be a distressing and difficult decision, and whilst we can’t make the choice for you, our compassionate staff are always on hand to talk through all your options and answer any questions you might have.

Making it special

Many bereaved families take comfort from placing personal items such as letters or photographs in the coffin with the person who has died. We will place no restriction on what is placed in the coffin while it is in our care; however there are restrictions placed by crematoria, such as metal or glass objects. We’d be happy to advise you accordingly.

Carrying the coffin

We will always supply bearers to carry the coffin, however you may wish for relatives, friends or other loved ones to carry the coffin instead.

Clothing

It is normally acceptable for the deceased to be dressed in their own clothing, however in some circumstances, particularly where cremation will take place, there are restrictions on certain materials. If you wish to provide clothing for the person who has passed away, please seek our advice and we will advise you accordingly. Alternatively we can supply a wide range of dressing or suiting robes that are acceptable to the relevant authorities.
