The cost of a funeral depends on the choices you have made. We will discuss with you the type of service you would like and complete a written estimate as a guide to the total cost of the funeral. Prior to the day of the service, when all arrangements are finalised, we will confirm the actual cost which will form the statement of account.

 

Costs include:

 

Funeral Directors Charges including our service fee, embalming if required, after hours transfer of the deceased if required, use of our facilities and vehicles.

 

Coffin or Casket depending on your selection, as they do differ in price. We can assist you in choosing a coffin or casket according to how much you wish to spend and what you consider appropriate.

 

Depending on your personal circumstances, you may be eligible for a government allowance to help with the funeral costs.   These departments include.

 

Centrelink Entitlements are often available for the following people: Married pensioners, Single pensioners, Carers pensioners and Sole Parent pensioners.

 

Department of Veteran Affairs If the deceased was an ex-service person, you may be entitled to a funeral benefit.

 

To alleviate any additional stress to the  family, J Kirk & Sons will notify these departments at the time of arranging a funeral.
