Compare Funeral Directors

Burial: This is where the person who has died is lowered into the ground in a coffin or casket.

Cremation: This is when the body, inside a coffin, is placed into a specialist chamber, called a cremator. After the cremation you or your funeral director can collect the remains, these will look like a powder and will be in a box or container.

Attended Funeral: This is a funeral where family and friends have a ceremony, event, or service for the deceased person at the same time as they attend their burial or cremation.

Unattended Funeral: This is where the burial or cremation takes place privately, without friends and family of the person who has died.
