Choosing a Funeral Director
Shopping around for a funeral director when you are recently bereaved is not easy. The majority of people choosing a funeral director may have no need to this — their family may have used a particular undertakers before, or perhaps a funeral director has been recommended by a relative or friend, or maybe there is a funeral parlour near to the deceased's former residence. But without the knowledge gained from a past experience, the following guide to finding a funeral director in the UK might help:
- Make sure that the funeral directors concerned are members of a recognised trade association NAFD or SAIF. These logos will be clearly displayed in advertisements or in premises.
- Think about the type of funeral you might want and ring funeral homes for competitive prices before inviting a funeral director to call. (Ensure you are comparing like-for-like funeral services.)
- Many funeral directing companies are owned by regional or national concerns — make sure you are not ringing several branches of the same company and receiving the same price.
- Ask how much the coffins cost and try and get an accurate description and preferably a colour coffin brochure so that fair comparisons can be made.
