Transport

As part of the funeral arrangements, a hearse will need to be organised.

 

A standard motorised hearse is the most frequently requested, though in accordance with the wishes of your loved one you may prefer a horse-drawn or motorbike hearse. Other vehicles, too, have been utilised in the past such as trucks and vintage hearses, and we will certainly do our best to accommodate your requests. Whatever you decide, we can make all the necessary arrangements and take care of the practicalities.

 

You may also want to consider how many vehicles you need in the cortege, where it will leave from and whether or not you would like to take a special route significant to your loved one. You may find it useful to talk to us about your funeral transport plans, as we can advise you on travelling times and the protocol surrounding the cortege.
