Avoid Delays Before Funerals by Choosing an Independent Funeral Director

Here’s our latest full page advert, which appeared in The Hunts Post last week. Click on it to bring it up to full size.

Particularly at this time of year, we often hear about long delays between death and a funeral, and how funeral directors tell their clients that the crematorium is full.

In reality, by being flexible, we can almost always find a way of organising a funeral without a lengthy delay.

Large, corporate funeral directors are often conducting funerals for many different offices, so are restricted by the practicalities of vehicle movements and staff whereabouts. But instead of telling their clients this, they blame it on the crematorium.

Small, independent funeral directors are focussed on providing a service to their clients rather than maximising profits for their shareholders. Because of this, we can usually avoid delays with funerals.

We recommend and encourage potential clients to talk to several funeral directors before appointing one. Shopping around is quite acceptable, and the difference in service is sometimes unbelievable.
