A funeral in Australia is made up of products, documents & services which are legally required.
During the funeral process of an Australian cremation or burial funeral, a casket or coffin is legally required for health and transport purposes.
No, you don’t. However, funerals have continued to occur for centuries for important reasons.
Funerals are more for the living than for those who have passed away.
It is a ceremony of recognition, farewell, and most importantly to assist the living with closure.
The price of a funeral service is not significantly more than one without one.
However, this decision is entirely subjective.
Yes
All cremation funerals in Australia legally require a casket or coffin.
Yes
However, a sea burial is actually a lot more complex and expensive than one would presume as it also must be approved by certain Australian government entities.

The emissions and power required to cremate a human body has a large toll on the environment.
There is no conclusive evidence that cremation funerals are more environmentally friendly.
Each funeral option has its pros and cons as there are many stages throughout a burial life cycle that needs to be acknowledged and analysed.
Natural burial cemeteries are now an option in Australia. This may be an option to consider.
It depends. Most above-ground memorial burials in Australia require embalming.
Repatriation legally requires the deceased to be embalmed.
Embalming is a procedure where a body is prepared in a way to preserve it and also present the body for
an open casket funeral so witnesses can view the deceased.
Just as property prices in urban areas have gone up over the past decade so have burial plots.
Final resting places in non-urban areas tend to be currently cheaper than cemeteries in highly populated areas.
However, ensure that the location and distance are suitable for you and your loved ones.
Yes, you can.
Most Australians don’t know, but every step of the funeral can be done by you.
It’s a strange analogy. But arranging a funeral is similar to arranging a wedding or other events.
It is entirely subjective and some people wouldn’t want to do it. But some people prefer to do the arranging.
It can be very memorable, very personal, very rewarding, and very special.

A message from the founder
A funeral is subjective. A memorial item is subjective.
A simple coffin and an elaborate coffin will successfully serve the same practical purpose required by Australian law.
For this reason, we often speak with our customers, not encouraging them to choose a simple coffin but we always explain it is perfectly appropriate to do so. We hope that we have provided you with a variety of choices that makes a very difficult time a little bit easier.
