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, because a burial also carries the cemetery's plot and interment fees. The Australian Seniors Cost of Death 2.0 Report (2023) estimated $11,039 for a burial against $8,045 for a cremation. Cremation also 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.
