Funeral pricing

We pride ourselves on offering exceptional quality at an affordable rate

Funeral costs are a difficult subject to discuss. They are however, a very important subject and are becoming an increasing worry for many people in the UK. Our service to you involves making every step of the funeral process easier for you and your family, of which funeral costs is an ever increasing focus.

Transparent funeral costs

Following a CMA (Competition and Markets Authority) review into the practices of the funeral industry, from 16th September 2021, every Funeral Director must now produce a full price list, allowing everyone a fair opportunity to compare their costs. For example, an attended funeral (funeral directors charges only):

  • H C Townsend & Son – £1,800
  • Co-op Funeral Care – £2,595
  • Dignity Funerals (Goods of Harrogate) – £2,495
  • GE Hartley & Sons (Funeral Partners) – £2,825
  • Full Circle (Harrogate) – £3,355

This does not take into account the level of service that you will receive from an independent, family run funeral director.

Whilst our average cost is much lower than the average on face value, we do not pride ourselves on being the cheapest option funeral director. We pride ourselves simply on offering exceptional quality at an affordable rate, which we have succeeded in providing for decades.

We will pay all funeral costs, including third party costs, on your behalf if you wish, providing you a complete and final invoice. We provide a minimum payment term of 3 months and discuss flexible payments to those in need.

We do not take accept money for prepayments. If you have a pre-paid funeral plan in place, they will handle all prepayment funds. We do not request to take any deposit before the funeral takes place.
