Affordable
solutions for
the perfect
farewell
Funeral costs can cause a lot of stress and hardship for many families at a very difficult time. From arranging services to the type of farewell you want your loved one to have, costs can spiral easily. At Kenneally’s, we can work with you and your family and tailor a funeral to suit your budget.
Tailored options for personal financial circumstances
Funeral costs are of course negotiable, and our funeral directors can work with you to decide which aspects of the funeral you can do without, and which parts you would like to keep. At Kenneally’s funerals, we find this is the best way of ensuring the most tailored and affordable funeral for every individual.
Funeral prices vary from burial to cremation with other factors also adding to the overall cost, such as coffin types and selections, personal viewings and funeral locations. For cremations, prices will also depend on whether the cremation includes a service. Cremations without a service are a common choice for families seeking a memorial service rather than a funeral service.
Funeral Directors fees and charges
Funeral director fees are charged by the funeral director for the following services:
- Hearse on the day of the funeral
- Staff member to attend the family residence to arrange the funeral
- Staff present on the day of the funeral, liaising with cemeteries, crematoriums, hospitals, clergy and newspapers.
Payment methods
We accept the following payment options:
-
Credit Card (Visa, MasterCard)
– Surcharge fee’s do apply - Cheque
- Cash
- Direct deposit into our account
Funeral finance
Kenneally’s can also assist with your funeral costs, by placing you in contact with lenders, if the funeral expenses come at an unexpected time (conditions do apply).
Disbursements costs
Disbursements are costs paid on your behalf for the following services:
- Cremation fee & chapel hire at the crematorium (for cremations)
- Flowers
- Press notices
- Clergy offerings (Priest, Celebrant)
- Application to the Registrar of NSW Births Deaths and Marriages Death Certificate
- These individual funeral costs are added together to give you one final amount.
It is a requirement by the Department of Fair Trading that all funeral costs be itemised by the funeral director either before, or at the time of the arrangement.
