Cremation reduces the body to ashes through high heat, returned to the family in an urn. Burial places the body in a coffin in a cemetery plot. Cremation is generally less expensive (median $6,500 in Australia) than traditional burial (median $8,200) and offers more flexibility around the timing and location of any memorial service.
No. In every Australian state and territory, families have the legal right to arrange a funeral without engaging a funeral director. Most families choose to use a director because the practical work (transport, paperwork, coordinating with the cemetery or crematorium) is significant, and a director handles it. If you are considering arranging a funeral yourself, contact your state's Births Deaths and Marriages office for the required paperwork.
Compare on three things. First, transparent pricing: providers who publish package prices upfront tend to be more straightforward to deal with. Second, reviews and Funerals Australia membership: membership of Funerals Australia (formerly the AFDA) signals adherence to the peak body's code of conduct. Third, the services included in the package, since the same headline price can include very different inclusions. Every listing on this page shows these signals where the provider publishes them.
