Funeral Price Guide

Our Funeral Director in partnership with Picaluna Funerals

PRICING

Picaluna believes in 100% price transparency. 

We itemise in the invoice, all the products and services for the funeral at cost.  For example; if we get a coffin from the supplier for $300, we itemise it in the invoice at $300… no hidden mark-ups. We then apply a 40% Service fee to the wholesale cost of the funeral, which is how we make our revenue.  Furthermore, we donate 5% of our revenue to a charity of the family’s choice from one of our charity partners.

As part of our Price transparency ethos, following are some of the common prices for cremation or burial and funeral costs, we provide (all costs are inclusive of GST).
