How much will a Funeral cost?

Choosing Best Funerals and our local funeral directors will ensure you receive the exact funeral service you and your family want for the right price.

What to Expect

The cost of a funeral can vary, depending on the type of service you choose, where it takes place, and any extras you add. With a BEST Funeral Director, you’ll always know exactly what you’re paying for and will always be in control.

Core Funeral Director Services
Every funeral includes the essential services of your Funeral Director.  Their time, professional care, premises and facilities, essential transportation and provision of a simple coffin. With A Slater & Sons Funeral Directors you can expect these to start from around £2,780.

Burial or Cremation Costs
You will need to pay for the burial or cremation itself.
– A cremation at Haltemprice Crematorium can cost from £1,160
– Burial fees can vary much more depending on the cemetery, if you’re a local resident, the size of the grave, and more.

Additional Services
There are hundreds of ways in which you can personalise the day with extra services – such as alternative coffins, additional transportation, flowers, a minister or celebrant to lead the service, catering at a wake, service stationery, a memorial, and more.
These services are ultimately optional, and your BEST Funeral Director will explain all costs clearly before you make any decisions.
