FUNERAL DIRECTORS
If you are happy to accept coffins, caskets or urns from Caskets Direct Pty Ltd please contact us to let us know and we can provide your contact details on our links page.
We can assure you that our products are of the highest quality, have been tested at Test Safe, abide by the Australian standards and are covered by a manufacturer’s guarantee of quality.
We estimate less than 1% of all Victorian funerals each year will choose to buy direct, however if those 1% of consumers chose your funeral home over a competitor then your sales will increase, whether you supply the coffin or not.
Funeral Directors services
Caskets Direct strongly believes that funeral directors provide an invaluable service through offering caring support and advice to bereaved families. Whilst we can help you with the nuts and bolts, it is your funeral director who will help with everything else.
The services funeral directors provide are varied and are outlined below:
- Obtain the signature of the attending physician, coroner or medical examiner and file the certificate with Births Deaths & Marriages.
- Transport the deceased from the place of death to the Funeral Home.
- Help you to select the funeral or memorial service location from options such as church, chapel, or graveside.
- Plan for a viewing of the deceased (if required)
- Make necessary arrangements with clergy, church and cemetery officials.
- Compose and submit newspaper and other media notices on your behalf.
- Help you select poems, readings and music for the service
- Arrange flowers for the funeral.
- Arrange and provide food and refreshments for the service.
- Arrange for family transportation to and from service.
- Collect all the necessary certificates and send them to the appropriate authorities
- Arrange special certificates necessary for cremation
- Attend to Registration of Death. Contact Social Security and/or Department of Veteran Affairs.
